Very observant! There is no connection, but the concept is really
intriguing. All it takes is an
entirely separate gear bag, and an entirely new computer setup with
a LOT of ram! But if I could
shoot windsurfing pictures that are as wonderful as that sample, I'd
be all over the concept.

I've had a Roundshot for a couple of years, and it's a marvelous
camera. Only thing is, mine takes 120/220 film, and a fairly small
bag. This thing, even in the 6x17 version, is HUGE. Did you see the
picture of the guy holding one for a vertical shot???
Also, it needs a good PDA to function as the controller, and a
dedicated MacMini for data transfer. Depending on how the firmware is
set up, it needs to transfer between 500mb and 1.25gb/sec. In 360
degree mode with 80mm lens, it will produce a 470mp image, with a
compressed raw file size close to 1 gigabyte, and this huge file is
for a shot that the camera produces in 2 seconds.
ISO sensitivities up to 10,000 make this possible.
