I had 11-22mm, which I found it to be NOT wide enaugh, and going for 8mm fish.

So, did Samyang bring out an 8 mm fisheye? That would be the only EF-M option at this time I suppose??

I built my own EF-M fisheye from a m4/3 lens

Yes, Samyang has now few wide angle and fish eye lenses, and some of these are for M system. I opted for 8mm f/2.8 II silver version (mostly because of price/performance ratio and price for the silver color). Cost me $255 new, shipped. I only have to wait for about one week to get it from UK to Czech Republic.

According to all reviews, its good performer. I can see myself pulling awesome partially corrected 4k shots out of this little bugger. Especially with newer body (24+Mpx sensor).

I prefer the focal length range of the 18-55mm to that of the 15-45mm as the interesting part of the range of the latter for me is included within the range of the 11-22mm zoom. That lens is a cracker. For portraits I like the 55mm focal length but I don't use the 22mm - 50mm range that often.

I do like the Samyang 8mm f/2.8mm II, the projection is very kind if you have people in the shot, much more pleasant than a rectilinear ultra-wideagle.  The lens is much the same size as the 18-55mm so it goes very well with the M series cameras.

Samyang 8mm f/2.8 II not de-fished
