this is a test of my new toy :) (this lens is absent in the DPC database)

Looks cool. I'd like to see an unprocessed, uncropped version from this lens. The topazy processing is confusing the evaluation :-)

yes, here the unprocessed image. it is absolutely original(except the raw development always without processing).

Interesting... must have a pretty large image circle. Normally an 8mm fish would give dark corners on an APS-C camera (and a full circle on 35mm). This looks like it covered the entire frame; perhaps its actual focal length is a little longer than 8mm?

no it is a linear fish eye for aps-c, the circle is only on the circular fisheye

No such animal... fisheye lenses are "equiangular" (although other mappings are possible, all that I know of are equiangular). What determines whether they are "circular" or cover the full frame is mainly the focal length.
