Hi,
For what is worth I would recommend you upgrade to either the CP4500 or CP5000 instead of the CP5700.
Why? Costing really!Like you said you will need a new Fisheye Lens, Panohead etc.
If you were starting from scratch, well then the 5700 or 8700 would be a good choice. Though in mine and others opinions the FC-E9 is a little softer on the edges then the FC-E8 used on the older CP9XX, CP4500 - CP5000 series which have a slightly sharper image.
If you are doing "Normal" (I.E not full screen pano's for Internet display) the CP4500 or CP5000 is more then enough. If you wish to do full screen then look at a D/SLR as the lenses for the CP series don't really cut it.
Check my sample on my website, all are CP4500 except the full screen which is Canon 10D D/SLR Sigma Fisheye.
Regards, Smooth
