I'm a WA shooter; love the near far perspective. Great foreground leading to an even greater far background. But the 40 is 3x heavier than the 80. Guess I just want it all.

The "apparent perspective" will vary with each "different" panoramic technique used: Wide angle lens Camera and lens panning on nodal point axis (stitching) Lens rotating on static image plane Sliding back along image plane (stitching) each will offer a slightly (or very) different "look" Regards, George Lottermoser george at imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
