Indeed, how could you have missed that, Moose? 

Menu J1 on both EM1iii and EM1X, to my certain knowledge, and I understand also 
with EM1ii with FW 2.0. In all cases with a choice of effective focal length.

So yes, *really* in-camera.

But I wholly support what you say of Imadio Fish-eye Hemi, and absolutely not 
because of my family name.

Oops! I'm scratching my head, "How could I have missed that?"

But not really in-camera; Oly saith:
"USE THE 8MM FISHEYE AS AN ULTRA WIDE 4.5MM LENS
