Some time ago, someone on this list was experimenting with using
mirror-glazed premium pinballs for that sort of thing:

I purchased a hemispherical mirror from Linos Photonics back in 2000,
based on suggestions from Professor Dersch. What I got was a 40mm plano
convex lens with a silver coating on the convex side - basically, a
hemispherical mirror - with an f of 50mm, silver coating on the convex
side. It ran $65.10 USD. It took them about 2 months to fill the
order, fabricating in Germany and shipping through their US office in MA.

I produced a couple of mediocre macro panoramas with a CoolPix 990. I
have not tried again since I got a dSLR.
