If you don't like the rectilinear correction of wide angle lenses, you can

convert it to a different projection with panoramatools (or the plugin-set

that belongs to it ... especially the remap-plugin) ... for instance a p-sphere

is a projection, that distributed the degrees of the field of view more evenly

over the image ... but the price for this is, that straight lines are no longer

straight if they do not go through the center of the image. There is always a

penalty of some sort, whichever projection you chose.

Ah... thanks for the tip. That sort of does the same thing as what I was searching for.



I finally found the article, and indeed it was hidden on northlight-images.co.uk:

He uses photoshop's lens correction plug in to add some barrel distortion, and then use the Fisheye-Hemi plug in for photoshop.

That reminds me of this page on DxO. Haven't tried that function though.

Thanks! DxO does a more complex and thorough job, interesting.
