More on the Subject of 8-bit Versus 16-bit: "This week, I wanted to expand on what I wrote a week ago regarding the benefits of 16-bit as compared to 8-bit editing. Here then are the answers to a few questions that have come up since last week...." (Via Earthbound Light Photography Tips.) 7:29:59 AM

I see VRmag has an article on the new Karline rodeon pro VR head at http://vrm.vrway.com/vartist/VR_industry/KARLINE_RODEON_VR_HEAD.html The features include: Fully automatic 360 deg. panoramas -- for a perfect focus on creativity. With manual panheads, a lot of work was required to capture a full 360 deg. panorama. With the brand-new motorized KARLINE rodeon pro VR head, panning movements (horizontally and vertically) are controlled by the built-in electronics. It is very well suited for high-resolution multirows. Some highlights: - The KARLINE rodeon pro VR head turns almost any high-end digital camera (e.g. the Canon EOS series, Nikon D series, Konica Minolta, Sigma etc.) into a panorama machine. - The VR head has a built-in control unit and, turning in the nodal point, captures the chosen motif fast and precise, horizontally and vertically. The camera release is perfectly timed ñ done is the picture series. - In no time but high quality, the panorama software, e.g. Realviz Stitcher (with automatic mode), knits your picture series into a 180∞ x 360∞ spherical panorama. 7:25:13 AM
