All my posted panos were shot with an SLR.

There are actually a bunch of one shot systems. BeHere has been selling a variety of one shot models since about 1996. Surround Photo has a one shot model. There is the one you mention and there are a few others. Some of our list members have also made their own one shot systems from security mirrors, Christmas ornaments and other odd & ends.

Some of the medium format self spinning pano cameras produce great quality shots.

Generally, the mirror based one shot systems don't give as good of a quality as if you shot multiple shots with either a film or digital SLR or even a prosumer digital camera. They are a great time saver though.

My recommendation is that you take your current equipment to where the action is and give it a shot, you might be pleased with your results.

I think I might be hoping for the impossible. Living in Whistler, with all
the great activities that go on here, I am hoping to take some good sports
VR tours. If anyone has any other suggestions, please feel free.


BTW, a panorama is a panorama. A VR tour, OTOH, is a panoramic scene comprised of multiple panoramas and other content, like maps.
