Canon 10D, Canon 15mm fisheye - 2 rows

Hi Hans -
Yes, I confirm that I used 2 rows only of 10 shots each. I added a
patch for the madir in Photoshop to a tile created in Panocube to rid
of the head, and although I didn't need a zenith I used it anyway as
it tidied everything up. I can send you my project file if you want to
see it.
There was very little overlap for stitching between the rows. I
originally shot 3 rows of 10 plus nadir & zenith to make sure that I
had sufficient coverage as I wouldn't be able to get back into the
cage and re-shoot it if all went haywire, but I was fast running out
of time and decided to try and ditch the centre row to speed up my
stitching.
I have previously shot in rows of 8 around, and I didn't get very good
stitching even with 3 rows, so I might stick to 10 around next time too.
