No shit, fish-eye lens are a thing , lol. So what is the official scientific reason for always using a fish-eye lens on the rovers that ' ... produces strong visual distortion intended to create a wide panoramic or hemispherical image" rather than more natural or true to perspective lens ??. Total deception and manipulation 101

This is the problem here, you would know the answer if you just followed the link. There are no "photo" cameras, just hazard and navigation cameras, they all have to be wide-angle to be usable without panning. The rest have a zoom lens or are just spectrometers.

Duh, yes of course 'no photo cameras' on one of the absolute few things in the whole of mans history of existence to document being on an entirely different planet without it having deliberately added image distortion, instead of using standard wide angle panoramic lens. Right makes sense, lmao.

It's like I'm talking to a demented person. They're navigation cameras, no one's distorting anything on purpose.

instead of using standard wide angle panoramic lens.

They're not shooting Tarantino movies up there.

Just stop looking at the photos if you feel tricked by them. lol
