Thank you for your replies.
Probably there's not much request for that object, but, just to clarify my thought, I know that a fisheye fixed lens camera is limiting, and of course you need to have at least one other camera, but it's great fun for landscape, sport, candid and street photography.
On the other hand, even if there are technically better options for fisheye photography, the advantage of keeping it simple in just a fixed lens camera is that it's easy to carry, to use and very robust and you can easily manage stills and video, using it as an action camera, a social life or a landscape one.

Would you buy that camera?
I think Pentax could (and should) easily do it!
For the following reason:
1) Pentax has small, low-cost nice and trendy P&S cameras with 1/2,3" sensor;
2) Pentax is releasing a fisheye toy lens for Pentax Q that share the same sensor of cameras;
3) Lomo fisheye camera is very popular, and it's analog and a cheap one;
4) there are no digital low-cost fisheye cameras on the market.
So they have the lens and they have the body, they just need to put them together and have a nice low-cost (not cheap) fisheye P&S camera for stills and video.
I think it could be real fun, and you?

What about the 24 mm f1,8. It seem huge, but if you don't need a compact lens, this could be an option. Very fast and wide enough for available light photography (it should be something like a 35 mm on film, but with more depth of field) Does Anybody know it?
