I have never seen a store bought panorama rig.
The rigs shown here are both prototypes.
Multilevel rig
The Fisheye Spherical panorama
rig.
Original: OLYMPUS FCON-02
Kit My first digital camera was
the C-990 zoom - 2.1 megapix from Olympus, I am
sure the same camera have different names around
the world. For this camera Olympus offered a
fisheye lens, I based my design on this lens.
The Rotator from the FCON-02
kit was used and placed on the tripod, a cube of
acrylics were placed on top of this to remove the
camera from the rotator, in order to minimize the
size of the rotator in the picture.
Right and left side of the
camera, I used orange acrylic, because I like
Orange. Notice the black foam insert against the
camera, this prevent light from leaking into the
lens. The reason for the transparent acrylics is
that it is easer to judge delicate gaps in the
material when gluing it together, this is very
convenient during the manufacture of a prototype.
Special Thanks Special Thanks to Bo
Lorentzen. Bo made the more
interesting bracket.


オリンパス C-990
ZoomとFCON-02(魚眼レンズとローテータのセット)

FCON-02に付属のローテータを三脚にセットし、アクリルの台をさらに乗せて魚眼レンズの写真に写り込む三脚を最小限度にしている。

透明なアクリルはズレを判断するのに容易なために試作品の製作にはかなり便利です。
