And you still have the old detectvr.js script.
I just set a page with text on Mac.
Download the new script Version: 1.1.5 from DevalVR.

Hello Dorin,

I worked quickly and only on the nadir to hide the tripod, but I shall have a look at the others pictures asap and delete those shadows... and the centaur :d

Do you have a recommendation for cleaning the sensor? I usually give it to a shop and the guy does the whole cleaning for 30euros...

Cheers

Hi Alexandre, about cleanning, if 30 euros is not much for you and the cleanning is perfect, then you should only concentrate on preventing the dust to enter into the camera and eventually to reach the sensor, you may use some good friends like
1) gravity, to keep the camera with sensor up/lens down when you travel or it is stored, changing the lens with sensor up, please resist the curiosity to see the mirror inside wink

2) to keep the camera sealed in a plastic bag

A way to carry dust in the camera is via the cleanning process itselves, body cover, lens, battery and memory card, take care on cleanning an cleann a bit before put those things in camera.

I've purchased a flacon of Eclipse cleanning sollution and one applicator, I do the cleannig myself in a way explained with my poor English here
www.panoguide.com/forums/tipsntricks/2485/

The applicator is a piece of plastic over which is wrapped a piece of tissue, I re-use only the plastic one, on which I wrapp, very carefully, another sterille piece from a good quality lunette cleanning set.

I discovered that the Eclipse sollution is very imporant. Do not re-use tissue! Buy 2, 3, applicators and kepp them ready for the job.

If you travel you can do some check from time to time by using camera's display, at the maximum zoom in, and using the navigation (arrows button) to 'pan multirow' over a photo of white area or blue sky. You'll find the button sequence once you'll try. It works for me and in this way I discovered dust a couple of times and I cleanned it out.

I am now in thr French Alps and wanted to clean my sensor on the hop, I knew it was dirty! I bought an "Arctic Butterfly 700 travel kit". This includes a brush which attracts dust/particles and some swabs to remove any other type stain. I took a picture of a pure blue sky and enlarged various sectors, not a single glitch anywhere. Cost me £100 though.
Love your pano's of the Alps, inspirational.
