[HDRI] Mac-Mini | Photosphere | VNC

[Jack de Valpine]

Hi all,

For those interested. I just wanted to report my success so far. I have 
accomplished the following:

   1. acquire mac-mini
   2. open and install 1G RAM upgrade
   3. install photosphere
   4. run remote session to mac-mini via VNC allowing for use of full OS
      X desktop and applications (including photosphere)

So this is a great little HDR image processing appliance that can be run 
remotely to other types of systems using VNC. Pretty neat.

I have been doing some initial experimenting with a Cannon EOS 5D and a 
Sigma 8mm Fisheye. The camera is pretty cool, certainly the most 
high-end digital I have used. It is very nice the way the the camera can 
be controlled from a pc (windows, sorry). Not sure what to report on the 
lens yet. I guess there is the optical vignetting issue that Greg 
provided some data on, however I guess practicality of equipment ease of 
use also has to play an important part.

Preliminary experience with Photosphere is quite nice. Now on to trying 
out some IBL.

-Jack
