Earlier, I listed a few item I wish for–mostly cycles and related items. Among the items on my wish list is a Nodal Ninja 3 MKII Panohead. With additional research, I find the Nodal Ninja 5 [photo to the right links to web site] may be a better [more sturdy, with additional flexibility] buy for my intended purpose. Now, in addition to a different panohead, I have more to think about: camera; lens [recommended ~ Sigma 8mm f/3.5 EX DG Circular Fisheye Auto Focus Lens ~ please note there's cheaper pricing than the MSRP]; and then there is stitching software [Autopano Pro upgrade to V2.0 to be released 02/09, and a more fully featured version-Autopano Giga 2.0, also costing more].
