I have now received my "pole" and apart from a few minor things that I think could be improved upon in later models, I am VERY pleased with this bit of kit. I have done a sample here http://www.360panoramics.co.uk/workhouse.mov
The pole came in very useful as it allowed me to see over the front wall of the house - in the ground level 360, the lower part of the house is obscured by the 8 foot wall at the front.
