Eric, very impressive results. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I like Canon myself.
Pamela - When I discover something that makes my job easier, it's pretty exciting news. I'm a Canon fan also. And I'm learning to love DxO Optics Pro!
Thank you Eric. This is really useful information. I am headed into DxO Optics right now.
Faye - That's awesome! I'm always delighted when I can introduce something new to ActiveRain friends.
Eric - I enjoyed your post and photos. We are using the Canon 10-22 which is not really a fisheye but it has sure made a difference. Thanks again!
Sam - I take your kind words as high praise, as I've noticed you are quite a skilled photographer yourself.
I've used the Canon 10-22 myself with impressive results. For the most part, I use the Canon 16-35 f/2.8 L-series Ultrawide. The 15mm fisheye is a fun lens to experiment with, but it's not exactly a staple among my lenses for real estate.

I use Nikon, but not very big fan of fish eye in small spaces. Maybe i should try. Your pictures look really good!
Inna - Nikon also has a great fisheye lens which I've used myself in the past.
People used fisheye lenses in the past primarily to take one-click virtual tours. They would take two hemispherical fisheye shots and use software to stitch them together, producing a 360-degree effect.
I prefer to use the fisheye lens for specialty shots of tight spaces, like alcoves, hallways, bathrooms and kitchens. The effects can be stunning.
Thank you for the kind words!
Eric, I am camera shopping right now and read that with the newer Cannons the lens correction is built in if you use geiuine
cannon lenses.
Wayne - I'm told there are at least some lens correction capabilities in the new Canon 5D Mark III. The DxO website advertises that DxO software is capable of achieving superior results with the new 5D Mark III, so I suspect the camera's new features don't completely erase the necessity of using image rectification software.
I use a Sigma 10-12mm on a nikon. I do caution folks not to automatically go to the widest setting as it will make a room look way larger than it is and cause some distortion. I try to shoot the equivalant of 20-24mm on a 35mm camera when ever possible.
