Hans,
I should have worded it differently. "Cubics shot using 2-4 full frame
fisheye images tend not to be of as high quality as those shot using
multi-row images. Also when looking straight up or down the multi-row
cubics look much better."
Quality also goes down the more you have to stretch an image so it looks
"correct" - programs do more "stretching" with Circular fisheye images and
one-shot solutions than they do with multi-row.
I prefer the "look" of cubics shot using multi-row methods. I don't like
doing them that way however! ; )
