PanoTools: Re: excellent transaction on ebay for Peleng Cédric Simon 2005-Aug-12 16:23:04

Thanks Alex !
With the Peleng, on a tripod, with no moving objects in the scene,
given the 106 deg horizontally, you can do 4 shots, + 1 up + 1 down.

But when handheld (this was the case for this pano) I go with 6 + 2.
And anyway, 6 is a bit better because you use less of the corners of
your images, which are a bit soft. 

5 images would be ok, but handheld, it is difficult to rotate by 72
degrees for each shot :)
