Does anyone of you having fun playing fish eye lens like I do? Then you should try this too, a process to remove the fish eye distortion and make it an ultra wide angle images. With the lens that I have 8mm fish eye Samyang, I tried to remove the fish eye lens have using Photoshop but not succeed. I then search a software that can do that for me and Google give me these three different type of software that actually can do the job perfectly. That is DxO Pro Optics 6, PTlens, and Fisheye Hemi plugin. I choose PTlens as the software easly downloaded from the net and offer small size compared to others.

The process is called defishing. Defishing is actually stretched the images till it gets the horizontal and vertical axes are straight. All of the corner images become unsharp and blurred a bit. This process perfect for fish eye lens that ranges from 15mm to 20mm. And when you using lens like mine the 8mm one, the corner becomes more worse than other lenses above. The final image look like panoramas as they stretch wider.

The software offers two different types of launcher. From standalone application and plugin from Photoshop. Perfect for landscape photography, and when it comes to people, just like normal super wide angle lens it will distort them. Preferably use fish eye for detail and creative shot. This software is only option for photographer out there to try new options using their fish eye lens.
