Not always, I usually use a 35mm or 50mm but this was taken with a 28mm in 
portrait....

I have had best success with a 50mm lens, using an M9, or a 35mm on an M8.  
There is no need for anything wider, as that only introduces edge effects 
that make stitching harder.  A fixed focus lens is ideal.

You can hand hold the camera if the main subject is far off.
