My cheap and light panorama head
Monday 5 November 2007
The panorama head that I use to make my panoramas is actually made of 2 flash strobe accessories.
This combined with my graduated rotating tripod head, makes a great panorama head.
I also use it with a monopod. Combined with a monopod it becomes an excellent kit for ultra-compact panorama gear. I usually carry it anytime I go hiking, even if I'm not sure to shoot.
(the head + the monopod account for less than 1Kg and can fit in a small back bag with my DSLR)
This can be a nice very portable backup for those who have a big professional panohead.
For beginners (like me), it is also a good way to start doing good panoramas without the cost of a professional panohead.
I haven't had the chance to try a real dedicated panorama head yet so I can't comment on how much precision my panohead lacks compared to real ones.
But what I can tell is that it offers a rather good flexibility (allows adjustments in any directions and rotation) and good stability for less than US$30.

Sample images to put in your /image folder:

If the panorama image you want to publish is called my_image.jpg, the plugin will use a thumbnail image IF there is an image of the format my_image_small.jpg in the same folder as my_image.jpg.
The install doesn't require any code modifications... Just install and enjoy!!!
