I once have calibrated a fish eye lens with the hugin tutorial. It took me
some hours to make the pictures, understand the concepts and achieve a good
result. Later I have discovered that I didn't need to do that to make a
full sphere panorama. Hugin - and probably PTGui - can do the necessary
distortions based on control points and in a defined angle - like the 360
of the full sphere.
