Fascinating images Mark, but I'm afraid the light was too tricky. Probably a bracketed exposure would be more convincing and a lot of photoshopping afterward...

Looking forward for your next panos.

hello Nikos

I opened some of your beautiful and inspiring panoramas on my macbook (2.1 MHz, 4 GB RAM, both on QT and Flash, in Safari and Firefox)

IMHO our computers are optimized and configured better than average, so it is little surprising to ask here; better ask feedback from people outside the panorama world who may encounter different problems while trying to load large images.

Hi Konakid

nice to meet you smile

My humble opinion is that the Nodal Ninja is a very good panoramic head and the 5 series (I was lucky enough to see) is very nice for the common panoramas and gigapixel.

I'd advice to avoid anything in-between the panohead and the tripod. Try a Manfrotto tripod.

You have good equipment so for the panos you obviously need experience. Just stitch panoramas, post the links over here and you'll have the best imaginable advice.

I have the deepest respect for the Nikkor lens, I'm sure you will discover with experience what you need for your images with good details.

I work on a Macbook 2.1 with 4 GB ram and it runs well (even on windows).

regards,
Valentin

hi MAK,

Beautiful panos - but I'm more impressed by the good quality after the compression. I simply can't get anything near acceptable when compressing to say 2 MB eq images.

I opened some of them on windows and leopard both on mozilla and safari and run well.

As in many other panos there remains the problem of the mixed light, ie tungsten along daylight - you know there are no blue windows in your hotels...

regards,
Valentin

wow - congratulations

I like very much the tour and most of all the inventive way you managed to put flash to work. I like the interactivity in the foggy entrance pano.

Now I'm on a very slow dial-up connection and even so the panos are loading acceptably.

good work,
Valentin

Again some nice panos.

You've used a high ISO but finally obtained a low noise image; what's the trick?

Hi Terry and welcome to Panoguide.

Sorry, since I'm on Canon I know little on the D200 but am sure 10.5 Nikkor is a famous reliable lens.

As for the logo, I think you should consider the worst case of printing it - so that it wouldn't lose details or significant information and then build something more sophisticated from it (for instance imagine a .75/.3 inch newspaper size logo).

Good luck to you and to The Studio Corp, [but you'll have a better chance if I couldn't register the domain www.regal360.com wink]

I'd hate to spoil any fun, but the trouble in this is having constant and satisfied customers, so I'm afraid you should consider showing a portfolio with serious happy clients and some marketing ideas on how you're going to promote VR.

You'll find a treasure of technical tutorials here as well as very passionate people for advice in all aspects.

Hello

Very nice panorama; it loads fast, but I'd love to see it on a full screen version - maybe you'll consider the extra button.

Hi Eugen, nice panorama from Peles.
Just wondering how you managed to avoid moving persons problems regarding bracketed images.

Also I'm interested in your work flow.

Your Peleng is really good.

hi irieman,

sorry it seems there is a problem on your page: after selecting the pano it comes an 404 page error.

from the thumbs I'd say pictures are interesting and the places charming.

Valentin
