As for Easypano, the softwares including panorama stitching program(Panoweaver) and virtual tour creating program(Tourweaver). With these two programs, virtual tour can be viewed on PC, Iphone and Ipad. Hardwares are mainly consisted of DSLR, fisheye lens, tripod and panohead. Surely, wide-angle lens can also be used to create panorama. However, it is not convenient. And it is quite difficult to handle the shooting process. With DSLR and fisheye lens, less than 8 images would be enough to create a panorama. If you are shooting circular fisheye images, even 3 images sufficient.

With different collocation of DSLR and fisheye lens, you can get circular, drum and full frame fisheye image. More detailed info in this regard can be found via http://www.easypano.com/pw6-equipment.html. Panohead and tripod also play important roles when shooting images.
