Any of you folks got a Lensbaby Composer. I am looking at the double glass or the new Sweet 35. I don't like the idea of having to replace plastic apertures which I assume the Sweet 35 eliminates. Also I have noticed that a lot of the shots on the Web seem OOF even in the sweet spot, is this because of crap glass of just crap focus. It would probably be easier to pin point focus using live view zoom.
Comments please and where did you buy.

Yesterday I took this Pano (external link)
But I could not get it to stich together correctly, so I spent sometime on it tonight.
This one is a bit better (external link)

Not bad, are you using Auto Pano Giga? If you take a shot of the ground directly below the focal plane you can stitch it in to eliminate the converging lines.
You could send this to Phoenix RC flight sim to create a new flying field.:idea:

No, I have a manfrotto pano head which, gives me the postions at 60 deg, and a home made pano rig. then stick it together. As I just playing around with the set up I have not worryed about the converging lines, but I have a shoyt that I could use without the tripod.

Sorry, I meant the Auto Giga software for stitching not hardware, I was interested to know what stitching software you used . As a matter of interest what model# Pano Head are you using?

The S&F range is something I saw online yesterday, it's like a utility belt system. Thought I'd give it a whirl to stop carrying my huge bag everywhere.

Having a look round I settled on the Tamrac MAS as that seemed more affordable than the street and field yet still got great reviews. Love it, the bag is really only used now just to house my kit, when I'm using it it all goes on the combination of the belt and the Cotton Carrier.

I use PTGui to sitch the photos and then Pano2VR to create the 360 pano

Here is a photo of the set up it has a Manfrotto 300N head, the rest is home made, as I could not justify the cost of a commercial one !
It was build will the materials I had under the bench.
