I set the 35mm lens at f11 and focus on infinity, manual shutter speed according to conditions, usually 1/500 sec. in the sunny scenes like this one, and rotate the camera on a Manfrotto 300N panorama head, which has click stops that you set according to the angle of coverage of the lens to ensure that you take just the correct amount of pictures with the correct overlap. In this case, it was 9 pictures (the camera is mounted vertically). Another very useful accessory is a levelling base.
