I rightclicked on the "image", copied the url from properties and popped it into another window.....the image appeared...

Interesting.....I know very little about the logistics of taking panoramic shots, but it looks great.

What did you use to stitch it together?

Nice Glamy! I was down there just yesterday for a swim!

Is this a stitched pano or just the Sigma 12-24 wide open??

I want that Sigma in my camera bag real soon!

You copied LOUD and CLEAR Birddog!

I'll be in contact on Monday re payment/shipment of the 24-120 VR and 77mm UV filter. I'll also talk to you about the 12-24 :wink:

Nice shot - the link is showing for me now, but only after I pasted the url into a new window to view it (guessing the image showing inline is coming from cache).

I do wish you and others here would STOP DOING PANO SHOTS (was that loud enough) cos the more I see the more I want to do them too. I have Panorama factory and autostich and have had a tiny play but to do panos you need $$$$$ for:
  • pano compatible head
  • nice tripod
  • 12-24 lens
  • L plate so you can shoot portrait

I'm having enough problems dealing with lens lust (can't decide to get Sigma or Nikon) :D

Cheers
Peter

Yes stubbsy, know how you feel.

Started with the SB800, everybody showing their great shots. Bought one.
Next, macro, loving the macro, Lusting.

Haven't got pano lust yet.

Holey moley, we need a patch to help with the cravings.

Sorry about the picture, it showed on the preview. I try again and add the link:

I could have worked on it a bit more, but I spent some time removing the markings that affect the demoes.

Glamy,

Nice pic of one of my favourite spots

I was passing that harbour and the light house etc in my fishing boat the other morning - about 300 metres of the coast - cloudy still morning - all of a sudden the sun burst through and lit up the entire place - perfect - but NO CAMERA on board :shock:

still next time :)

Keep up the good work

John

Love the first one!!!!!

I would like to see a copy with the vehicles cloned out, take away the human element of the shot :D

IMO, I think it would make the image just that little better :wink:

Cheers
Ray :P PS: just had a quick play Hope you don't mind????

Hi, Darb
Very nice, I've never been able to shoot panos handheld. How many shots and what lens in the second one?
Cheers,
Gerard

yeah ... doesnt always work, and theres still imperfections ... but just use your grid to keep horizon level, and use about a 30% overlap ...oh, and exposure lock ... and although i did use one, generally dont use a CPL or angle orientated filter.
