24mm PC lens & Pano head

Postby big pix on Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:20 am

well this is my first test with the 24mm Nikor Tilt & Shift lens with the Pano head....... 16 images stitched, any straight objects up close to the lens have some distortion but if this was replaced with bush or water you would not notice at all....... I am now off to do some tests around the bay.......

Bernie,

Is this one of the new lenses?

There's a 45PC f/2.8 attached to the D700 that turned up on Leigh's desk yesterday. :)

We're thinking of doing a short video to show how the shift feature works. With LV, and on a D300, this should be pretty easy and quite effective with the crop sensor and a large image circle.

....... Gary, yes one of the new ones which I have had for a few months.......... The pano head I bought years ago and it works great with this lens...... I will be posting a shot of the inlet shortly, keep an eye out.......... these are out of the camera images as the 24mm PC lens is so sharp
