After seeing
this and other great panoramic photos it has kind of inspired me to try some panormaice photos, and as you might know I have the FujiFilm Finepix S5000 which does not have a 'Panoramic' funtion as far as I can tell, so I was wondering what is needed to take these photos? are there any cameras avainable in australia for panoramic photos?
Thanks in advance

Hey dewy... just pan and take a few shots, allowing for overlap. Then you can get some software to stitch it together on your computer. That's how most panoramas are done. Using a tripod helps, but is not necessary.

If you seriously want a panoramic camera you could go for the Hasselblad XPan II for only $4,500.00 without any lenses!

I've used the arcsoft software which comes free with most stuff... not bad. Also IPIX.
Irfan view (free image viewer) has the function, but haven't tried it out.
