Great explanation, David! Thanks.
I will archive that one too. :-)
One question, though. Have you any idea how much the nodal point
change with zoom setting?

Well that's a pretty sweet deal.

I can't use a fisheye. The company that produces these virtual tours
has very specific guidelines. I have to shoot vertical with a 17mm
rectilinear lens and 30% overlap. (I'll use the DA* 16-50 or the DA
12-24.)

To be honest I can't remember. When my computer crashed last year I

I applied for a gig shooting virtual reality tours of houses. The job
should generate about ten assignments a month. To get a shot at it, I
had to say I had a panorama head. Shortly after sending an e-mail
application I received a call asking me to shoot a test by Friday. So
I had to order
Does the new geared pano head have a bubble level to assist in finding the
rotation center?
If so, the manual will doubtless have instructions for use.

Paul,
You really need Dave Savage to chime in here.
He's done some fine panos.
My experience is limited to 3 shots with the 31mm strung together.
I just guessed that the nodal point was somewhere inside the glass.

Hello Paul,
I did some Virtual Tour work a few years back. I finally ended up
getting one of those special mirror lens attachments that shoot 360
degrees. There is special software that changes the circular image
to something usable by the tour software. I even bought all the tour
software and

Actually probably not. I really shouldn't write when I'm still half asleep.
Also given the advent of live view, this could negate the need for the
3 shot overlay step.

Similar problem occurs in shooting. If you don't look through the
sights the same way every time, you'll have a hard time being consistent.

Thanks Bruce. Only the second of these loads for me as a panorama.
The mirror lens attachment sounds like a nice idea, but I'm limited
in regard to how the VTs are shot. The company that produces them has
specific guidelines. They also want hi-res work. Although some of
the panoramas are
