Hi Meredith,
This is not exactly the best place to ask this question, this newsgroup
is specific for WWP related subjects - and that's why it is usually so
silently, it really come to life near each event - but you can start
digging information at http://wiki.panotools.org/ which have lots of
excellent tutorials, etc!
You don't NEED to buy a 303 panoramic head. There is other ones out
there, some cheaper, some more expensive, some better, some ridiculous
worse, in fact, you don't have to buy a panohead at all. Of course,
using one can make your work easier - sometimes - but nowadays
stitchers/blenders do an amazing job correcting and leveling things.
A very good panohead is the Nodal Ninja 3 or 5 (the latest model) but by
your setup you can probably go with a NN3. At the wiki (link above) you
can even find out how to build yourself a panohead. ;)
Cheers,
Eduardo
