Hallöchen!

I own a nearly-stereographic fisheye (Samyang 8mm).  I calculated
its distortion parameters a, b, c with Hugin.  If I map the photos
to rectilinear, everything is fine.

Now I did some experiments by generating photos of a checkerboard
with a computer program, taken with a stereographic lens with the
above a, b, c distortion parameters.  To my suprise, they are
properly corrected in Hugin only if I apply distortion *before* I
switch to the stereographic projection.

This means that the anti-distortion polynomial does not apply to the
original sensor image but the remapped one.

This also means that if I want to have a *perfect* stereographic
picture, Hugin needs to map to rectilinear, apply a, b, c, and map
back to stereographic.  This would be rather wasteful.

Can anybody confirm or dispute this?

Thank you!

Bye,
Torsten.
