I used to have a Spiratone version in the late 60's that gave a 160 
degree circle with some cropping top and bottom on a 50, full circle 
on a 35, and a full frame fisheye effect with an 85. Edges and 
corners were fairly soft, but it was still fun for some shots.

I think there were 3 or 4 companies that made them at that time that 
sold them under a dozen or more brands.
