I think you'd better get the camera before discussing it as others might get the wrong idea.

And interesting logic... It's technically a fish-eye effect but it's very little, so it's not fish-eye. I wonder if this kind of logic would work in court by saying "the person had 0.1% blood alcohol concentration but it's so little - it's not alcohol". I guess it doesn't work this way...

you are not thinking straight here, you are messing up the words... as for the court: drunk = barrel distorsion; fisheye = drunk severely; small distorsion = lightly drunk.

fisheye does not define a specific distorsion neither a specific projection, there are different fisheyes with different projections and distorsions; fisheye means that you have 180 degrees field of view! there are lenses with more than 180 degrees field of view by the way!

canon's g7x lens has a small barrel distorsion, can we tell that every lens which has barrel distortion has a "fisheye" effect? no, as the fisheye effect means 180 degrees of image in the camera, there is no relation in between the two, except the kind of distorsion!? I think that you are blinded by your anger... calm down and think straight.
