Re: Shift-lens clamp for parallax-free flat stitch?
Use an RRS \"L\" bracket on your 5d - there are center line marks on the bracket for the landscape and portrait positions. Use an RRS ballhead clamp - there are center line & 10mm graduation marks to the left & right of center. Set up on a tripod - use a bubble level. If you have those items you don\'t need a pano rig or marco rail for three frame shift pano\'s. I keep my \"L\" bracket on my camera - full time.
Set (slide) your camera to the left 10mm graduation - shift TS-E right 10mm - SHOOT - Set (slide) camera to center - TS-E center - SHOOT - Set camera right 10mm - shift (slide) left 10mm - ETC. The lens stays on a center line - the body moves. I don\'t even lock the ballhead clamp or TS-E locks.
Sorry no pics - gotta go to work to pay for camera gear! Have fun!
