360 Degree Panoramic Photos, Just One click!

by JD

Upon reading my week-end newspaper, La Presse (Montreal) , I came across a small snippet talking about a website on which it seems, at first glance, that a video is loading up, but  in reality, it’s a panoramic photograph taken at 360 degree in high resolution. 

?? 

That caught my attention. I typed into my computer browser the given url link which navigated me to the Sistine Chapel Virtual Tour website:

Quite impressive !  And you can even zoom in by moving your mouse!

As if we were there……

 

Hear the choir? (brought back memories of the days when I was part of a choir…but that’s another story ;-)

My imagination started to generate ideas of potential photos  I could make with such a lense on my digital camera. 

Hum….how does it work? 

I googled on the topic and inside the first 10 results of page one , I was taken to the site of the Fastest, easiest virtual tour system on the planet and found an answer to my question:
 

It’s VERY simple!

I’m sure you’re wondering about the price.  I did too. 

Surprisingly enough, retail price is a bit less than $600. I was expecting a retail price in the range of $700-$900. Nevertheless, it is not “cheap” and consequently, I subscribed to their affiliate program in hope I will send lots of people to their site to earn enough commissions allowing me to purchase this cool lense.  :-)   ( just kidding, but true for the affiliate link ;-)

Did any of you experienced shooting which such a lense ? 

Share your experience with us by leaving a  comment below. That would be great! 

Talk soon.
