You don't mention any budget for this? If it will the budget I'm sure Seitz' Roundshot D3 would do the job? http://www.roundshot.ch/xml_1/internet/de/application/d438/d925/f933.cfm at EUR30.000 and 470Mpx panos in 2 sec?? You'd have to add a lens in the budget too... They also have cheaper and more flexible solutions, like http://www.roundshot.ch/xml_1/internet/de/application/d438/d925/f933.cfm which is a motorized head. OTOH, it works just fine with a normal panohead too :) I'm not quite sure what you mean with "luminance latitude", but it can probably be solved by shooting multi-exposures and merge them (HDR). That will take care of very bright windows in interiors.. -- Bj?K Nilssen - http://www.bknilssen.no - panoramas and 3D -- <*> Wiki: http://wiki.panotools.org/ <*> Nabble (web) http://www.nabble.com/PanoToolsNG-f15658.html <*> NG Member Map http://www.panomaps.com/ng/ Yahoo!
