Replicating Fisheye

[wildstallion]

Is there anyway to process an image to give it that circular fisheye look without having to spend a bomb on a lens that will rarely be used?

Im using PS CS2 if that helps

Thanks in Advance

How you archive a 220° angle of view in photoshop? Stitch a few photos and use spherize filter to distort it?

I would rather just get a fisheye lens instead, IMHO, a full frame (180°) fisheyes lens is not as expensive as compare to some of the fast zoom lenses, and the cheaper alternative for circular fisheye is to use a Russian lens on film camera.
