radphotos said: Thanks for the great advice....who would have thought??? SEARCH FORUM!!! you're the most helpful guy on this site!!
Hans actually is one of the most helpful guys on this site... Your response sounds quite sarcastic as if you are saying, "I don't want to have to search for an answer - I want someone to give it to me..." I hope that isn't the case and you are genuinely thankful for all assistance and advice given.
One of the most effective ways to get advice on a forum is to first search for answers, because in many cases, the information you are looking for is quite often already available and so rather than having to wait for someone to directly answer you, the information is there waiting for you to use the forum search tools to find it. That's why forums have search buttons...
The replies from both Hans and Dennis also contain accurate and very good advice.

Hans Nyberg said: -15 degrees down is too much you get the rotator in image which is no good. I guess you need just -5 degrees to cover almost down to the rotator.
I disagree as I get perfect results with my method. Suggest he tests both methods and then can draw his own conclusions.

esub said: The problem I have with this is I can't take a photograph pointing any higher than 55 degrees upward as the camera body gets in the way (as shown below). Any ideas?
Yup. Shoot 4 around @ -15 deg DOWN then 2 up @ +55 Degs (180 degs apart). No need to shoot 90 degs up.

Tourdesign said: Andrew, are you saying it's acceptable for a company to sell an item, then have the owner email the following day telling them it will be 3 weeks before it's due in stock?
Yup. Totally acceptable in my opinion. It's the way I've been operating for the last 5 years and in that time I had only one person complain and that was even after I emailed them back at 9:15pm on a Friday night, 7 mins after they placed the order to tell them we were out of stock. Just goes to show you can't please everyone....
Tourdesign said: Why not just list it as 'Not in stock', and give people the option of being emailed when it's in stock? (I suspect it's because you know they'll go elsewhere).
That may work for the likes of the major online retailers with their heavily automated systems, but for smaller traders like myself it's very difficult manually maintaining an eCommerce store with all the items I hold on inventory, so it works best to list items as in stock on the front end, but with a notice that the item is on backorder when a customer goes to checkout.
Tourdesign said: EDITED TO ADD: Just checked an item on your site and it does clearly say an item will be back ordered, which is fair enough. If the buyer is aware, then I guess that's their choice. It would be good to have an estimated date though, as I suspect this puts people off, a lot.
Actually, it doesn't appear to put people off as my store stats on abandoned baskets shows. But, I'm looking to implement an "estimated shipping date" module to my eCommerce store as you are right, it will help the customer experience. (Plus save me typing it out in an email whenever an out of stock order comes in...)

Thomas Krueger said: If you order a head you should be billed at the shipping day of your order and not 6 week before.
Sorry I have to disagree with you on that one. This depends totally on a company's normal T&C's. Some charge a card only when an item ships, some (like mine) depending on the payment method will charge the card overnight and advise the customer of the status of their order. As long as these conditions are detailed in the T&C's which are shown on the website it's then up to the customer if they wish to proceed and make a payment on their order or not.
