Personally, I've never understood people's interest in fish eye lenses...
As gold fishes maybe, but as humans? ;-)

Hmmm? The fish eye part is needed for its purpose. Without the "fish eye part" the lens has no reason to be? The resulting output gets processed, you don't have fisheye video as end result. You have VR content as output.

VR has nothing to do with being fisheye or not.
If you look at the video excerpts from the link you posted, you'll see they are fisheyed.
The same lens but corrected for distortion would have been a much more interesting offering.

I own 2 fisyeyes (8mm canon and sony) and goldfish.....

Perhaps your goldfish would appreciate this lens a birthday present? [Image: biggrin.png]
