Hi to all, I am having trouble with seams in my panoramic images. I am shooting a 360X180 fov with a FC-E9 fisheye lens. I beleive the problem is my nodal point which I am struggling to find. I'm using a coolpix 8800 camera, a manfrotto 475 tripod and a manfrotto 303 plus pan head. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hard to tell without seeing an example.

Upload some and we will take a look. (Both unstitched and stitched)

Regards, Smooth

The nodal point is directly below the widest portion of the lens.
This link will give you an idea how the lens' nodal point is positioned over tripod rotational point.

I use CP8800/FC-E9 and MrotatorB adapter on my manfotto tripod. The adapter from agnos.com was money well spent (US$225+)
