Julian,
Now that makes sense to me. Probably misread the article.

Didn't know that. I plan on doing some panoramas in the future, so this info is
coming in handy. Being a machinist by trade, I could construct something pretty
easily to do that. Oh boy, another project :-) Beats painting the house.
Thanks for the references you provided. I'll check them out.
Now, it's off to the local lab to see if my waterfall pics came out the way I
wanted them. The last try was a disaster.
Regards,
Don
