By no means close to DSLR regarding noise/artifacts etc, but the gap gets smaller.. (seen people on the web with DSLR's delivering less "quality" then this)

The iPhone has indeed great potential, even without a Fisheye using Photosynth and the like you can create quite amazing pano's.
This one handheld standing barefeet on a rock: photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=3ac2d093-3fa4-48a2-b...
But once again Eric here shows his master skills when it comes to panos, nicely done Eric!

Have you ever wonder how would it to be to stand inside a MAC computer?
www.zakato.com/?p=3106
(iphone 3GS+pixeet fe)
Not the best quality (yet), but it opens panography no new spaces (something between macropanoramas and panos)... I have called these micro-panoramas, from using "micro" lenses. Gopros could also work out nicely here.

I have to agree, even if I'm not fan of the iPhone, attaching a fisheye to the iPhone looks a bit against the whole iDea, though.

Of course they can't be viewed on the Iphone! Eric seems to live the charmed life.

It's a bit scary to see so much improvement in phone cameras during lately years, where will we be in 5 more years..
Just found another app to create 360 (not 180 I think) pano's on an iPhone, "360 Panorama" by Ocypital.
As pointed out to me by a potential customer who has his villa and rooms under development and was interested in my services (until, as he said, seen an example with that software).
It could be that he's aiming for a cheaper shoot with me, but he said he was considering if he should get an iPhone and the app to do it himself 
Anyone tried this app by him/herself?

It is always the same in business life: you can only compare things in prices which are really equal.
If you deliver good quality, you will have your customers for the price you are asking. And may be those who are trying the IPhone, will be your customers too once they recognize there is a difference between the two versions of shooting a panorama.

Hindenhaag is right but "here" the story is just about sharing knowledge and helping people to make a spherical pano with a gadget-lens on a smartphone because it's just.............FUN !
If you are a very-serious-professional-photographer-panographer who need to speak with other very-serious-professional-photographers-panographers about customers, money, business and not the charmed life or cool funny panos, open a new thread.
@Zakato: 'love your micro-panorama in the computer (www.zakato.com/?p=3106) ! I'm curious to test a Gizmon/Pixeet fisheye.
@Marco: 360Panorama by Occipital is a good app but does not allow nadir & zenith.
@Gus: Perhaps not "good"... but "not so bad".
@Henri: Arf ! Nice ! More than 40 pics handheld ?

Absolutely BRILLIANT!
I doubt this pano could be replicated easily with a DSLR, fisheye lens and pano head. This proves the saying "use the right tool for the job".
Taking a great panorama is never about the camera, but about the person taking the pictures. I keep preaching this, over and over again. Here is a perfect example.
I LOVE IT!

I'm surprised Eric, using "chess for dummies" for this demo.
BTW the watch has some serious color problems.
I think your new lens needs a calibration
You did it again……HAHA!
Thanks for sharing
