This year has been quite the worst I have experienced for some time
with 5 family deaths, paycuts and now my father in law will be in
and out of hospital over christmas and for the foreseeable future,
sure things could be worse but they could also be better.
Anyway my photography has taken quite a back seat and motivation has
been low, however I am hoping that they new year brings new energy
and interest to my picture taking,I hope to spend a few weeks in
wales next year and am looking for a new angle to my images.
I have the panorama mode built into my camera but it only works in
images landscape mode and I would like to take some images in
portrait mode and stitch them. I recently bid on a nodal ninja 3
but when the price edged up towards the cost of a new one I had
second thoughts.
I have a great tripod but its rather large to carry so I have been
looking for a light hiking tripod, I looked at the befree but then I
remembered moose's recent post on the velbon ultrek and it gets
favorable reviews not only from moose. I see that there is a version
with a panorama ball head and wonder if any one has used a ball head
for panoramas in landscape mode or would I need something extra like
the nodal ninja which is clearly up to the task. Cost is an issue
though so i would be interested in how others are doing it.
I am thinking of pulling the trigger on a velbon UT43Q with QHD-U4Q
but am hesitating because I am not sure if the camera would catch on
the legs or something else as it is rotated
Thanks in advance
