I did read Backscatter before posting. No mention of the fisheye lens. Without the Fcon lens, I supposed I could turn flash on, so that min SS can be set. However, I've heard that using camera flash uw isn't a good idea. Is this true?

it's draining on the battery, and cycle time is also an issue. If you're able to set the flash power to a minimal setting (some cameras have this). then the impact is low. You'd also want to mask it so it doesn't cause backscatter.

the lens shouldn't matter in the equation - it's still about wanting to do WA with ambient light. I'd expect Backscatter to have addressed this.
