360 with my new camera

[Seacat]

Last weekend the first 360 panorama with my new Canon EOS 1D X:



The nadir without editing, almost the nodalpoint fixed:





The flash version. (=> link outside this website)

Next weekend i'll fine tune the nodalpoint of the NN.


Equipment used:

• Canon EOS-1D X
• Sigma 8mm f/4 fisheye
• NNL5
• EZ Leveler II
• RD16
• Fanotec's dedicated plate (QRP2)
• Manfrotto 055XDB

The panorama is fine and the panohead setup appears to be ok. The nadir and zenith areas need some attention, though - the dark patch at the nadir should be easy to adjust to blend in perfectly. The Sigma 8mm f/4 doesn't seem to be very appropriate on a £4000 fullframe camera. Half of the available pixels will be wasted. A 15mm fisheye or the Canon 8-15mm fisheye would be a better choice.
