Wel you are in a similar situation as 1 was.
Worked with both version of Panoweaver 3 and 4.
4 is really a very sophisticatet tool and brought the most out of my shots-
until I discovered
PTGUI (is there a MAC Version ??).
Using Nikon D70s with a Sigma 8mm Fisheye & PTGUI -> th is my first choice.
Guess your equiment is better than mine- that would be even better.
I use a Nodal Ninja V2 which runs very good with the Sigma 8mm, Sigma 18-55
and the
Nikor 28-80. I know it´s not the best eauipment but the best fotos are made
behind the camera.
So I am happy with the equiment - but still on a learning curve with PTGUI.
But as far as I am now: messed up panos which won´t fit with Panoweaver 4
will be perfectly stichted and
blended with PTGUI now.
In combination with Pano2QTVR you have the best you can get I guess.
Besides: how will you handel Panoweaver 4 on a notebook & a stationary
machine when one is not connected to the internet ????
Also: there a so many people helping with PTGUI - really amazing.
Ciao
Mike

Betreff: [PanoTools] Long time lurker with 1DS pano questions
Though I've been receiving Pano Tools for a few years, I've rarely posted
in
the past, but now feel the need!
Until now, I've shot very few panos, due to low pricing and lack of
demand.
Those I have done have been created using Panoweaver 3.01 and a Coolpix
4500, fisheye and Kaidan head.
However, I want to try my hand at a full screen using my regular Canon
1DS but have a few queries I hope can be answered easily:
1. What lens should I get? Most obvious is the Sigma 8mm, giving a
circular
image on the 1DS full frame sensor. However, a 15mm could also be pressed
into service in regular work too.
2. What software? I used Panoweaver 3.01 previously. Should I simply buy
the
upgrade to 4.00 or is Realviz Stitcher or PT Mac (I'm on OSX) a better
option?
3. What head should I go for? A Kaidan or Manofrotto, or are there others?
Main uses I envisage are to try my hand at full screen VR as I'm itching
to
try, even just for personal satisfaction and secondly for printed output.
Looking forward to showing my first full screen VR!
Regards
Neill Watson
