Smooth,
I set F stop to 9.5 and focus ring to about 1.8 and I cannot get my images as sharp as yours. what's the trick?
Did you calibrate your lens as in this article:

Can I upload images here?
I have a problem with shooting and stitching nadir shots. Where can I find a good tutorial(s)? Zenith shots seem to be handled well and automatically. I just shoot zenith at +65 on NN5, but nadir at -65 does not work that well. Also 5 around at -10.

Hi Smooth,
What settings do you use on the lens (Fstop and aperture)?
Did you use Autopano and what else to create the example pano?
Thank you!

When I release a shutter and hold a lens at the lens mount I feel the aperture ring move/shake slightly. It is on D300. Is this normal?
