1. An apparatus comprising: an image capture device; a wide angle lens stage including a wide angle lens with a field angle greater than 100° to create an intermediate image with substantial wide angle distortion where the images of objects near the edge of the field are compressed in the radial direction; and a relay lens stage that causes distortion to substantially cancel distortion of the intermediate image and to project a substantially non-distorted image corresponding to the intermediate image to the image capture device.
