Anyone using this setup? If so, anyone doing 2 shot panoramas? What I wanted to find out is, are you using the default Fisheye 1 settings or are you using your...
I have no experience in using a fisheye, but have tried my hand with Panoramas. The only suggestion I can make is use only the manual mode when taking pictures...

I have today added several pics to my album - pelecanus's pics - one of which is a panorama. Continuing a current theme, the panorama was made up of 4 shots...
