I know nothing about the subject, but i think all you need to do is buy a fish eye lens and you are in business.  :happy2:

Not cheap mind.

As TC said all you need is a fish eye lens and some imagination :happy2:

But they are expensive probably around £600 mark new but you can get a Fish eye converter lens for alot cheaper around the £150 the quality of pics wont be as good as a full fish eye lens but you will still get a very good quality pic but unless your a pro you wouldnt be able to tell the difference anyway.
