One day I may graduate to more flexible format.<BR/><BR/>Stephen...i hear you and fully expected that the GP robot would accept higher quality cameras. Nonetheless, as a field geologist that carries a lot of gear, I am totally content with my small camera.Dr. Jerquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15934444760785537721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4889848627540591802.post-24868107612248323732009-02-04T10:33:00.000-08:002009-02-04T10:33:00.000-08:00Now if they made the so called "robot" look like t...Now if they made the so called "robot" look like the old 8 bit Nintendo R.O.B.

I've been able to embed them in my Wordpress blog (self-hosted). If you're having any troubles embedding them in other web pages shoot me an e-mail and I'll see what I can do to help you out.<BR/><BR/>@Stephen re: GigaPan DSLR support. Be patient, it's in the works. Although the initial models are designed for point and shoot cameras they are aimed at making this technology accessible to a general public (non-professional) audience, in keeping with the goals of the <A HREF="http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~globalconn/overview.html" REL="nofollow">Global Connection Project</A>, from whence the project got its initial funding. They know there's a lot of interest in a DSLR version of the GigaPan Robot and it's being developed. Don't know for sure, but I think their target date for DSLR support is late this year.Ron Schotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10020094512548523216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4889848627540591802.post-84983843991841041532009-02-03T18:17:00.000-08:002009-02-03T18:17:00.000-08:00I have to say, I find it totally bizarre that this...I have to say, I find it totally bizarre that this device is unable to accommodate SLRs. Even the upcoming "EPIC 100" will be unable to accommodate large lenses! Why would I spend $400 on a device to wheel around a crappy $200 point-and-shoot? I can't imagine it would be very difficult to beef it up to support a real camera.Stephen Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17346135200868259258noreply@blogger.com
