THe Nodal Point of a lens (changes with the focal length in a zoom lens): I just read an article in German FotoMagazine about Panoramas made from several single shots, stitched together. It turns out I must rotate the lens - not arround the tripod screw, but arround the Nodal Point of the specific lens I use (where the light beams are crossing inside the lens). This way I can avoid that fore- and background objects changes their relative positions. I must use a bracket to have the camera movee backwards, so the Nodal Point will be located above the axis of the tripod. (I can use a bracket from a Metz hammer head flash).
I've tried it and it works. Thought you'd like to know (if that's news to you - it was to me). Jens Bladt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hjem.get2net.dk/bladt
