What's your opinion when using a Canon 5d with the Sigma 8mm fish eye taking 3 shots? Or does it really matter with this equipment.
Paul.
Using a APS-C small sensor DSLR like the 350D, 400D, D40, D70 etc you need to shoot in portrait mode so that you can cover the sphere in 4 shots (Drum) to make your 360x180 panorama image.
There is no way to cover the full sphere using Panoweaver with an APS-C small sensor camera in landscape orientation.
Using a 5D or D3 full size sensor DSLR camera and Sigma 8mm you can have the camera in either Landscape or Portrait orientation because the image being captured is a full circle/bubble and you will cover the full sphere 360x180 in 3 shots (Circular) to create the panorama image.
