  • Answer:

    The fisheye lens made for your camera is the Zuiko Digital ED 8mm F3.5 Fisheye. http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/product.asp?product=1333 The problem is you are about $700 short with your current budget. Where did you get the idea you could find a fisheye lens for your fine camera for $100 USD? The retail price here in the States is $799.99

I don't know much about your camera system, but I highly doubt you'll find a fisheye lens for under US$100, and most certainly not a "good" one. I found one on the Olympus website for $800, and that wasn't even in the top of the range line. ETA: fhotoace beat me to it by a few seconds, but at least you're hearing the same story twice, right? ;-)

Why not add a fisheye adapter? If you're considering a Diana fisheye (won't work) then tip-top quality isn't one of your criteria. Try one of these. The quality is far better than the Diana and screws on to the filter of your current lens.... http://www.amazon.com/Phoenix-0-25X-Fisheye-Converter-adptrs/dp/B000LZCMQY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1272618030&sr=1-2
