Hi,

Something is not really clear !!  It seems you need a specific camera
(spherical or mirrored ball) to create spherical-360 type pictures.
Look at http://www.debevec.org/Probes/ for pic.
-------------
Some pic are done with professional tools (cameras, software) and are done
using 8 or more pictures to have a full panoramic view.
But some pic are done using only one shot and the result is still correct.
-------------
Now, all the pic I have are rectangular shape (well, the basic shape) which
is not convenient for a spherical mapping.  My question :  is there a way
to simulate this spherical effect using a camera effect in POV 3.5 (such as
Fish-eye ?) or using an other software (Photoshop, COrel, others) or am I
obliged to buy a specific mirrored sphere camera ??

Your answer would appreciated.

Tommy
