There is the Pentax 17-28 fisheye zoom which appears fairly regularly second hand an may still be available new. The idea of a fisheye zoom seems daft to me.
Otherwise Sigma do a 16mm full frame fisheye and an 8 mm fisheye which gives a circular image about 23mm diameter.
I keep looking for the SMC 17 f4 for sensible money but no luck so far
There is also a SMC A 16 2.8. And there are also hens teeth....
Autofocus on a fisheye is probably unnecessary as the depth of field is huge - just stop down to f8 and go!
