Philippe,

Try this : http://www.photoshop-tutorials-plus.com/panoramas .

Manfrotto have a "MICRO POSITIONING PLATE", ref.# 454 that sells for less than 
100,00 Euro. Also an "ELBOW BRACKET", ref. # 340, to change from a horizontal 
to vertical camera shooting position.

See also their PAN HEAD ref. # 303, and their PRECISION PAN HEAD ref. # 303 
PLUS. But, looking at the way they are built, they must cost a fortune !

Personnally, I am using a second-hand, Minolta, rack and pinion mechanism , 
that is in fact the lower section of a macro bellows.It performs the job of 
moving the camera up to the lens' nodal point. I mount it on a Nikon panoramic 
rotation unit.

All the best from (chilly) Brussels !

  Many thanks to all who on or off list commented and gave advice on this 
experiment.
  I'll try to stitch before anything else as suggested, and I'm looking for a 
device to adjust the camera on a tripod that allows for fine centering of the 
focal point of the lens. Any suggestion welcome of course.

  Thanks again.
  Bien cordialement de Metz
