Try out PTLens first, I would suggest http://www.epaperpress.com/ptlens/

I use PTGui to stitch all my images, but you can use this software to defish a fisheye image.

Hi, if you want to correct fish eye distortion with out doing a 360 panorama image then this would work.... But, if you are trying to make 360x 180 panorama images to upload to www.360cities.net, you don't need a program like that.  You need a program that can stitch the images together to make a 360 panorama.  There are several programs available, along with www.panomonkey.com that will correct the fish eye while stitching the 360 image.  Like Sophie, I also use PTGui to stitch the images to make a 360 panorama.

What are you trying to do??  Remove the Fish eye on a SINGLE photo OR create a Panorama?   Would I buy dewarper??? depends on what I was trying to do.  I don't have to worry about Fish eye when I am making 360 x 180 panoramas for www.360cities.net so I wouldn't buy the program.

If you need a program to de-fisheye individual images I recommend ACDsee Pro - it has the advantage of being excellent for reviewing and cataloging all your images, developing raw images, editing images (often doing a better and quicker job than in photoshop) plus it can be used to remove any kind of distortion and noise. The "lens distortion" tool will correct barrel, pincushion or fisheye distortion and you can shift the vertical or horizontal axis as well which can make a huge difference when removing distortion in an image with a horizon.
