My Fotasy is very well built.
...but sold only by Amazon as far as I can see. Which means I can't get it since they refuse to ship anything but books and CDs to here for some reason. The "funny" part is that they list it as an item they will ship, but when I get to check-out they all of a sudden can't for som unpecified reason. Of course, even if they would ship I know that the initial estimated $7 for shipping would grow to between $30 and $50 before the end. Small item shipping rates from the US are completely bonkers - which is why I pretty much have given up on ordering anything at all from there.

So, I'm limited to the rest of the world

If it's any consternation to you, both shipping (UPS & FedEx) and parcel post (USPS) from the USA to overseas is sometimes ridiculously expensive. Getting something from China or Japan the cost is trivial for transport, but sending it back can be absurdly costly.

That it is

Tried for some odd angles.


I must say I do like the 4:3 format. For landscapes I think 3:2 (or 16:9) might be more suitable, but for general use I often prefer 4:3 or 5:4.

Enchantingly disorienting. Reminds me of the Escher staircases.

In-camera panorama. It's fun when you do those and the shutter is on rapid fire, all you need to do is to just move the camera to the right

Snake stretched out across our trail. The second time this month I've come upon a garter snake extended almost linear across a trail. As with the first one, this snake's posture is a natural for a panoramic-by-cropping. Pana DC9 + Oly 12~100mm
