Types of fisheye lenses
In a circular fisheye lens, the image circle is inscribed in the film or sensor area; in a full-frame fisheye lens the image circle is circumscribed around the film or sensor area.
Further, different fisheye lenses distort images differently, and the manner of distortion is referred to as their mapping function. A common type for consumer use is equisolid angle.
Circular

The first types of fisheye lenses to be developed were “circular fisheyes” lenses which took in a 180 hemisphere and projected this as a circle within the film frame. Some circular fisheyes were available in orthographic projection models for scientific applications. These have a 180 vertical angle of view, and the horizontal and diagonal angle of view are also 180. Most circular fisheye lenses cover a smaller image circle than rectilinear lenses, so the corners of the frame will be completely dark.
Full-frame
As fisheye lenses gained popularity in general photography, camera companies began manufacturing fisheye lenses that enlarged the image circle to cover the entire 35 mm film frame, and this is the type of fisheye most commonly used by photographers.
The picture angle produced by these lenses only measures 180 degrees when measured from corner to corner: these have a 180 diagonal angle of view, while the horizontal and vertical angles of view will be smaller; for an equisolid angle-type 15 mm full-frame fisheye, the horizontal FOV will be 147, and the vertical FOV will be 94.
The first full-frame fisheye lens to be mass-produced was a 16 mm lens made by Nikon in the late 1960s. Digital cameras with APS-C sized sensors require a 10.5 mm lens to get the same effect as a 16 mm lens on a camera with full-frame sensor.

Miniature Fisheye Lenses
Miniature fisheye lenses are designed for small format CCD/CMOS imagers commonly used in consumer and security cameras. Popular format sizes are 1/4″ (active area 3.6mmx2.7mm), 1/3″ (active area 4.8mmx3.6mm) and 1/2″ (active area 6.6mmx4.8mm). Depending on the imager active area, the same lens can form a circular image on one imager (e.g. 1/2″), and a full frame on the other (e.g. 1/4″). Sunex makes a series of miniature fisheye lenses for popular imager formats.
Focal length
Sigma currently makes a 4.5mm fisheye lens that captures a 180 degree field of view on a crop body. Sunex also makes a 5.6mm fisheye lens that captures a circular 185 degree field of view on a 1.5x Nikon and 1.6x Canon DSLR cameras.
Nikon produced a 6 mm circular fisheye lens that was initially designed for an expedition to Antarctica. It featured a 220-degree field of view, designed to capture the entire sky and surrounding ground when pointed straight up. This lens is still manufactured by Nikon upon special order, and is used nowadays to produce interactive virtual-reality images such as QuickTime VR and IPIX. Because of its very wide field of view, it is very large and cumbersome – weighing 5.2 kilograms (11 lb) and having a diameter of 236 millimetres (9.3 in). It dwarfs a regular 35 mm SLR camera and has its own tripod mounting point, a feature normally seen in large long-focus or telephoto lenses to reduce strain on the lens mount because the lens is heavier than the camera.
An 8 mm fisheye lens, also made by Nikon, has proven useful for scientific purposes because of its equidistant (equiangular) projection, in which distance along the radius of the circular image is proportional to zenith angle.
Other uses

With appropriate software, the curvilinear images produced by a fisheye lens can be remapped to a conventional rectilinear projection. Although this entails some loss of detail at the edges of the frame, the technique can produce an image with a field of view greater than that of a conventional rectilinear lens. This is particularly useful for creating panoramic images.
Some planetariums use a form of fisheye lens to project a two-dimensional film image of the night sky onto the interior of a dome.
Similarly, the IMAX Dome (previously ‘OMNIMAX’) motion-picture format involves photography through a circular fisheye lens, and projection through the same onto a hemispherical screen.
Scientists and resource managers (e.g., biologists, foresters, and meteorologists) use fisheye lenses for hemispherical photography to calculate plant canopy indices and near-ground solar radiation. Applications include evaluation of forest health, characterization of monarch butterfly winter roosting sites, and management of vineyards.
Photographers and videographers use fisheye lenses so they can get the camera as close as possible for action shots whilst also capturing context, for example in skateboarding to focus on the board and still retain an image of the skater.
The peepholes used in doors generally contain fisheye lenses, so as to give a wide field of view. Security cameras often tend to have such lenses for similar reasons.
The first music video to be shot completely with fisheye lens was for the Beastie Boys song “Shake Your Rump” in 1989.

Mapping function
The mapping of a sideways object leads to a picture position displacement from the image center. The manner of this conversion is the mapping function. The distance of a point from the image center ‘r’ is dependent on the focal length of the optical system ‘f’, and the angle from the optical axis ”.
Illustration of the conceptual significance of the r, f, and variables used in the mapping function specification.

Gnomonical or perspective: r = ftan(). Works like the pinhole camera. Straight lines remain straight (distortion free). “” has to be smaller than 90. The aperture angle is gaged symmetrically to the optical axis and has to be smaller than 180. Large aperture angles are difficult to design and lead to high prices.
Fisheye lenses can have many different mapping functions:
Linear scaled (equidistant): , where is in radians. Practical for angle measurement e.g., star maps. PanoTools uses this type.
Orthographic: r = fsin(). Looks like an orb with the surroundings lying on < max. 180 aperture angle.
Equal area (equisolid angle): r = 2fsin( / 2). Looks like a mirror image on a ball, best special effect (unsophisticated distances), suitable for area comparison (clouds grade determination). This type is popular but it compresses marginal objects. The prices of these lenses are high, but not extreme.
Stereographic (conform): r = 2ftan( / 2). This mapping would be ideal for photographers because it doesn’t compress marginal objects as much. Samyang is the only manufacturer ever to be making this kind of fisheye lens. This lens is available under different brandnames. This mapping is easily implemented by software.
Other mapping functions (for example Tailored Distortion lenses) are also possible for enhancing the off-axis resolution of fisheye lenses.
All types of fisheye lens bend straight lines. Aperture angles of 180 or more are possible only with large amounts of barrel distortion.
