Joe I don't know if you have worked with Peleng 8mm fisheye or not but I own one and can certify its crispy sharp quality fully. As I mentioned the main problem with Peleng is the internal reflections when pointed to a sourse of light. Of course if you don't like the rough typical russian make or the manufacturere, that is a different issue. But at that price, Peleng is a bang for buck and I am yet to see one unhappy owner of this lens.

I fully agree with Purpulbyron that after seeing Pinkness works, sharpness is not a really needed element especially in low light conditions where even added noise in pp can add as it is quite naturally expected.

I gave a full spectrum of options with merits and sacrifications of each that hopefully if read, will give an idea as to which direction one wants to go.
