Happy New Year to everyone!

I own a SONY A6000 camera with a Nauticam housing/4.33 dome port.

I would like to buy the 16mm (SEL16F28) lens with the VCL-ECF1 fisheye converter.

I have two questions:

1. does the above combination results in vignetted images?
2. when you use CameraRaw for image post processing, there is only option for Lens Profile Sony E 16mm F2.8.
How can you create a profile for SEL16F28+VCL-ECF1 to correct distortion ang vignetting?

Thanks!
 
A fisheye lens does not get corrected that is the whole idea

I have seen images shot with this combo there was no vignette but the edges were slightly soft. Considering the low cost you can't really complain in my opinion
 
Interceptor121 thank you for your reply.

Finally, I did the test.

These are the results:
