I re photographed this shot with an Epic 100 engineering prototype using the electronic trigger. I used a Canon Xsi with a battery holder and a Sigma APO 300mm lens. The panorama consists of 160 photographs out of a planned 200 photos. The exposure was ISO 100, 15 seconds, f11, Tungsten white balance adjusted to2900 Kelvin from RAW format. I used a fresh set of alkalines since my Ni-MH rechargeables were at a low voltage. I plan on using the expensive energizer lithium batteries due to the relatively colder weather of 35 degrees F. Alkaline mAh ratings are reduced under heavier loads or cold weather. |

Authorized by the city of Canon City in 1929 the bridge is the highest suspension bridge over water in the world (1,053 feet). The river below is the Arkansas River. Note in the image the tourist train in the canyon and the wite-water rafters on the river. A helicopter is captured in three places as it does flight seeing. An aerial tram is seen in the far right of image. The image was caught with an Epic GigaPan and a Canon G10 having a 1.4X teleextender attached, giving an effective 200mm focal length. The GigaPan was optimized in Photoshop CS4. |

Memorial Day Weekend, 2009 at Ventura Harbor, California. This was done using the Gigapan Epic 100 and a Canon S5 IS, this is 750 images at 12x zoom. Each shot was 80 ISO, with an aperature of 4.5. This took almost 90 minutes to shoot. Each shot was repeated three times using the Epic 100 multishot function. The total 2,250 8mp shots was done with one memory card and one set of batteries for each the camera and Gigapan! |

This was taken from a parking structure in the Perl district in Portland, Oregon. You can see the large freemont bridge in the background. I finished the panorama just before a train rolled by. There was significant rain and wind. I photographed the scene with an Epic 100 using a Nikon D90 DSLR at 105mm using ISO 200, f/8, exposure bracket +/- 1.33 EV with 5s, 2s, 13s with white balance set to 2600K. This stitch only uses the EV0 exposure bracket because I was too close to edge and small rain drops were deposited on the lens. The EV +1.33 shows the effect of the small drops of water in portions of the sky which are manifested as circular flare. I adjusted the white balance of the camera RAW files from 2600K to 2850K. There is mixed lighting with the monochromatic low pressure sodium lighting or something similar to it which yields different white balance depending on what lighting is illuminating a certian part of the subject. There is no visible sawtooth and I did not bend the camera plate. In the future I will photograph at a position that is behind any water on the ground so that the lens does not recieve drops of water which effect the brighter exposure brackets. |
