It seems that both names are in common use - An equisolid lens produces equal area photographs, and a lambert equal area azimuthal is the equivalent cartographic term. >I actually think we should keep fisheye as the prefix to the name of >input projections, and well established mapping names for the output >projections. What do others think? I can imagine wanting to remap a 'lambert equal area azimuthal' panorama and being confused that I need to import it as an 'equisolid fisheye'. ..but a photographer who has bought an equisolid lens wouldn't expect any other name. -- Bruno --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
