I have canon 450D + samyang 8mm f3.5 + Nodal Ninja 3 MKII w/Rotator R-D8.

I am thinking to buy Canon 7D and i want to know if the samyang 8mm f3.5 and Nodal Ninja 3 MKII w/Rotator R-D8 it will fit on Canon 7D.

Also with Canon 7D i will have better quality than the Canon 450d?

Many thanks,

G'day Panayiotis,

The 7D will work fine on the NN3, although you are pushing the limit.
The 7D is a superior camera over the 450D but as I have stated before
"Learning how to get the most out of your equipment is where the challenge is. Buying one product over another is NOT the answer".

Are you proficient with the 450D? Shoot and process RAW correctly?

Show us a sample of your results so far.

Regards, Smooth cool

Here my website give me your opinion about the quality.

I shoot on jpg and after i used photoshop in order to create 3 different exposure. Then i used photomatix pro in order to create HDR panorama and at last i used lighroom and photoshop again to fix the leves, contrast colour and noise of the panoramic image.

Your panoramas are of a good standard. More could be had from your camera/lens combination shooting and processing RAW.

The 7D based on what you have shown would be an advantage. I highly recommended the camera.

Your site would benefit from consistency in layout along with your skins and button placement. They kept changing from tour to tour or panorama to panorama.

Lemon must have a different meaning where you are? A "lemon" is known as "slang" for dud or defective purchase, something not up to the standard it was intended for. Originally meaning a "bad car" today it is used for anything sold that is sub par.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Market_for_Lemons

What is it about your panoramas you wish to improve?
