I have been trying off and on for the last month or so to create a QTVR 360/180 panorama movie after acquiring a Peleng 8mm fisheye lens and Nodal Ninja 3 parallax correction tripod head. I seemed to be able to work with the tripod, the Nodal Ninja and the camera/lens to take the pictures but the stumbling block was the software. I had purchased Panorama Factory thinking that it would do the job (it seemed like a nice, integrated piece of software) but to my chagrin I have found it does not have support for fisheye lenses.
So I went searching for something else. I found a combination of open source and freeware tools centered around Hugin (recommended in a panoramic forum) that seems to do the job.
Anyway this is the first QTVR 360 panorama -- still has some flaws but the major kinks seem to have been worked out.
Click on the image, drag to move left, right, up, down -- shift and control to zoom.
