For those that remember my collections spree as part of the Photo Challenge, you may recall that I love the old Christmas TV show Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Well, I love the entire series, I think there were two made. One of my favorite parts of the show was the Isle of Misfit Toys.

It is actually a pedestal that turns slowly and has a place to mount the camera on the top!
Oh, I see… So it will spin slowly as the camera takes pictures continuously… Is that so?
yes that is exactly what it does. It works reasonably well, but there are now better ways to take 360 degree pictures.
