Congratulations on purchasing the Zeiss 30mm. It should perform well on the Pentax.

Here are some sample images from the Arsat 30mm fisheye and the Pentax 35mm A on my Pentax 645D.

Arsat 30mm fisheye view.


Pentax 35mm A view.


100% crop from upper left corner of the Arsat image. I was trying to focus on the shrub in the foreground. As you can see there is some color fringing and sharpness is not that great, but my focus could have been slightly off as well.



Size comparison of the two lenses.


And the Arsat mounted on the Pentax.

You might also consider the 'Russian' copy 30mm Arsat via a Pentacon 6 -> Pentax 645 adapter. Quality control was inconsistent with ex-Soviet camera gear, but "good" ones were actually not bad.

My widest Pentax 645 lens is a 35mm A lens and the 30mm Arsat is significantly wider, but with fisheye distortion.

It's night time now, but I'll try to take some sample shots tomorrow and post them here.
