Thank you, Bert.

Very impressive!

Was it easy to correct CA and suppress blooming?
Nikkor 10,5 is great lens, but sometimes CA is a pain and blooming hard to correct with d70 or D200.

It seems that the ultimate combo consits from 5D, Sigma 15mm and shaved nikkor

PS what is the practical fov of Sigma fisheye comparing to Nikkor's 87 degrees?

[Bert]

Forgive, I don't know what blooming is

CA is easy to correct, I think...

This pano I shot today:

After optimzing PTGui gave this:

o w1 h1 y0 r0 p0 v170.741 a-0.148052 b0.15318 c-0.125072 f2 d-10.020669 e3.670025 g0 t0

I don't know the fov should be around the same... But you can use 5 around, if you want with the Sigma...
