I'm particularly curious about some of the Samyang 8mm lenses being used this way... because they might actually give a usable circle covering a bit more than 180 degrees.

Samyang 8mm are made for APS-C, and I guess you can find relevant info on spherical pano sites. I know shaved Nikkors DX 10.5mm are used on FF bodies (even Canons) for such purposes without focal reducers, indeed covering more than 180deg.
