nice effort Andy.


those lovely big chips on those canon cameras give a great field of view.


was that cropped a little from the original if you are using a camera lens ?

Cheers Rob.


Its very slightly cropped at the edges, the Raw from my camera is in the region of 5100x3300 pixels (18Mp).


I resized it in PS because the original is 82Mb! so it is slightly compressed but still a PNG file.


The lens I have (Xmas pressie) is a Professional Canon lens (15 element Apo) and is designed for full size chip cameras as well.


The sensor end of the lens is about 40mm in diameter.
