Well… You get what you pay for. A real fisheye lens costs at least $300 (the Samyang 8mm f/3.5, sold under various names), the big brand ones $500 and more.

From that adapter lens you can expect rather horrible image quality, but then again it's relatively cheap. Considering that fisheye lenses are a rather special application and many people use them perhaps half a dozen times and then they begin to gather dust on the shelf, it may not be a good idea to pay the price for a real fisheye lens.

What's even up with all the people suddenly asking for fisheye lenses? The frequency of these questions seems to have increased a lot.
