No personal experience, but from the looks of it I think I can save you over $200:

wow guess i'm in love again! :)
i was looking at a sigma 8mm fisheye lens but it went up to 1000$, that must be a powerful lens not for me for sure. :)

if you want to get real fisheye out of your 20d your only option really is a circular frame 8 mm. You can get a cheap one by peleng, or one by sigma. the 15 mm won't give you too much fisheye. If only canon were smart and made one for digi, i might have though about gettin canon, no regrets over here though. I have the 10.5 2.8 nikon fisheye and love it.

i was just reading on that i really want that fisheye effect to visual. and it seems like nor the canon nor the sigma 15 makes it. :(

the 8mm is close the price of the canon. //www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=179368&is=REG
it's a stop slower but you don't have much of a choice with that.

you can always create the effect with ps, but it's just not the same.

it also stops down all the way to f/32 which can give u some pretty cool star effects on the sun etc.
