Adobe Elements can stitch panoramas quite well.

Oh well, here goes. I'm always up for a challenge. This is an MX-1 raw file, sadly not particularly pictorial but it is straight out of the camera.

I'd challenge anyone to upload a viewable unprocessed raw file to this thread. No one could without processing it first by one means or another. Now there's a challenge for someone!

As you say, not really any troubling corner vignetting. This was at 14mm according to the exif.

I've no solution for the IE popup as I don't use IE and haven't experienced it. However for the Windows 10 annoyance install GWX Control Panel - it'll remove it and keep it at bay and allow normal Windows updates to function as they should (bet you haven't seen any normal Windows security updates for ages?)

Not originally but they now own the brand. I think they'll sell it to you if you want!

I cannot recall anyone referring to it as exhaust back in the golden steam days, but now it is used as a generic term for emissions of fumes from anything. Not my car though as it's a Nissan Leaf !

I don't agree with you but not to worry even if you're probably technically correct. I've never heard anyone saying a steam loco is emitting exhaust. Smoke, yes. Steam, yes, Exhaust, no! They never called it exhaust when I was a lad! But bring on the diesels and the air was full of it.

I don't recall any other retailer selling Chinon items in the UK other than Dixons, are you aware of any Vic? As far as I know Dixon's were the sole UK importer so the cameras could only be purchased from Dixons, so it was virtually a Dixons brand in the UK. I agree with you about them being an independent company etc.
