Super Panoramic shots of Orchard Road (critical info)

[denniskee]

Guys, after discussing with Darren, who had agreed to help us into achieving the goal, I will need below info from you.

1) nic and actual name of photog ("shooter")
2) nic and actual name of their backup ("buddy")
3) camera setup
4) indicate camera is a "pre-wind" or "post-wind" type
5) a column to indicate which saturday they are not able to shoot

item (4) is to split them into 2 groups to avoid difficulty in stiching processing cause by the frame sequencing.

item (5) can help to plan for both trial and the all out shoot.

ermm... sorry. i a bit swaku in SLR terms. but, wat is 'pre-wind' and 'post-wind'...

[weevil84]

pre-wind means when u load in the film catridge, the camera will straight away wind to the last frame, so that every frame you take will be wound back into the catridge. rationale is if u open the cover accidentally or by purpose, most shots will be saved as they are already inside.

post-wind is the conventional method, where the camera will advance frame by frame when u shoot and will only rewind when "asked" to or when the last frame is exposed.

3) eos cam x1, manual film x 1. one lens for each cam
4) 1 prewind and 1 post wind
