I don't use it often, but I do use it sometimes to get _really_ close to the cars in the paddock. It can give some pretty interesting shots where the car basically fills the frame completely. If you're careful about the orientation of horizons and high-contrast edges, it's sometimes not even very noticable that it's a fish-eye image.
