Is the 10-17 fish eye throughout the focal range?

Two questions:

1. Is fish eye a gimick that you soon get bored with?

2. There seems to be a range of Pentax fit fish eye lenses at the moment. Which do PU members have and how do you rate them?

If you've still got the other adapters that came with it then the Olympus one works with Pentax viewfinders and the Nikon one can be persuaded to squeeze on too.
Unfortunatley I've lost the box with all the adapters in it so if anyone has a spare adapter of the Olympus or Nikon type please let me know and save an old man from laying on the floor to take flower pictures!
