Hi Leonardo,
Pentax makes a 16mm Fisheye and a Zoom Fisheye lens, both superb and
expensive.
The term Fisheye refers to the spherical distortion particular to this design of
lens.
For a view of the differences between fisheye and rectilinear lens (normal)
see:

For other examples of fisheye images see:
