I've seen some nice pics from this lens. W. Hamler's recent Hot Dog
Heaven is a prime, err... zoom example.
My question is related to its fishiness. I've heard that the lens is a
fisheye at 10mm, but loses its fishiness as you head towards 17mm, so
that it looks like a rectilinear at 17mm.

By 17mm the distortion is pretty much non-existent.
Here are a couple of examples of mine (taken in the exact same position):

Well, I disagree with Dave. The lens is still quite
fishy at 17mm, and if you look at the curvature in
the buildings, trees, and road in the second pic, you
can see it easily.
It's a great lens. I enjoyed the 17-28 so much on my
(P)Z-1p that I asked for the 10-17 for my birthday,
and got it.
I can see a slight amount in the tree building but none in the road.
I think I picked a bad example. I've just gone and searched through my
archive for another shot at 17mm and it displays obvious fishiness. So
I'm withdrawing my pretty much non-existent comment. Funnily enough
almost all the
Makes you wish you had that prototype 8mm fisheye that never made it to
market huh?

Thanks Dave. I dont see much distortion at 17mm, but its hard to tell
since there are not many lines to allow a clear conclusion.

I got the lens for a specific project that ended up not happening.

Oh, you did it again to me! :-).
