tried it today... LOVED IT!!!!!!

one question, i was expecting more of a bubble effect... any techniques to enhance that?
also... the 2x teleconverter...will that affect it weirdly?

The only way to increase the fish-eye effect is to get a full frame sensor. Because of the crop factor of you camera and it's sensor you lose the most distorted parts of the image and that's on the edges.

Easiest way to enhance it. Get away from the 1.6 crop factor camera or buy one of the newer fisheyes designed for that crop factor.

Sigma recently announced a 10mm fisheye. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm seriously considering buying it.

I'd look at these: Sigma 8mm f/4.0 EX DG or Peleng 8mm f/3.5. The Sigma is probably the better lens.
