spherical panoramas (as everyscape)

[slyping]

HI,

My name is Cristóbal Sly, I am from Argentina and unfortunately my English is not good. I am conducting an enterprise and I want to make photos inmersive as www.everyscape.com. They use 4 cameras and i assume that they are using a Wide Angle lens.
I was thinking buy 4 cameras Canon rebel xti with wide angle of 15mm more or less.
Do you know what type of lens and what type of camera can help me?
Note: The photos are taken from a moving car, so one photo by camera
Do you have any software to combine the photos PTGui? EasyPano?

Thank you


Sly, Cristóbal

Hola Cristóbal,
te respondo en inglés para que nos entiendan el resto de participante en el foro.

For this kind of panoramic views you can use a 'one shot' optic like that:

I think that this is the best for taking panoramas from a moving car. This way you avoid sincronisation and stitching problems. If I were interested in this kind of project I would invest in this tipe of optics.

Saludos !

One shot panoramas is not an option because in order to get everything in focus you have lo shot in high F (22 or up) and shooting from a car in motion thats not possible. (very low camera speed)

Please contact me, I have been doing high research on that matter.

It depends on the speed of the car ;)
