- Price
- 1. Public price
Public price of the Panobook 2009 is 30 euros ($38*). This is the price recommended for sale in bookstores. Our company is located in France. If you live outside the European Union, or if you have a European VAT number, you don’t have to pay the VAT, so your public price will be 28.44 euros ($36.33*).
- 2. Contributor special price
As previously announced, all contributors will be able to buy the book at cost price. Cost price is 13.46 euros ($17.18*). Our company is located in France. If you live outside the European Union, or if you have a European VAT number, you don’t have to pay the VAT, so your cost price will be 12.76 euros ($16.29*). The detailed budget of the book can be sent to any contributor wishing to review it.
Good news: we decided not to put any limit on the number of books a contributor can order at cost price 
- Collective projet, collective goals
This project aims to enable all Autopano users to have their best panoramas published into a quality book. The goal is also to show the general public that the panoramic photography is at anyone’s reach.
With this goal in mind, all benefits that might be generated by Kolor through the sale of the book at public price on its website or elsewhere will be allocated to projects promoting the panoramic photography, like a panorama contest or grants to projects dealing with panoramic photography.
See you in a few days for the release of Panobook 2009!
* Prices in dollars are indicative. Exchange rate as of Nov. 24th, 2008: EUR 1.00 = USD 1.28.

I got the book the other day. So much talent – fantastic images! I am really, really enjoying it, very inspirational. The Panobook is a brilliant idea – now with Giga coming out, and the posssibility to create virtual tours you will need a huge website in addition to the 2010 book

C’est fantastique – I am very much looking forward to getting copies for my friends and family here in Australia. Autopano Pro is a work of genius that has helped me so much in Antarctica (including at the wonderful French Station at Dumont D’Urville, where everyone was so friendly.) Merci! I look forward to it.
