Hi Jan,

for completeness:  On a full format sensor 70.81 deg (vertically) should
be f=16.9mm.

The lower 5 pictures should be down 21.22 deg, the other 5 up 21.22 deg.
 Horizontally they should be spaced at 72 deg in each level.  All these
10 pictured would be landscape.  If you do portrait you'd need f=15.7mm
or less.
The single down facing pic needs to be parallel to one of the pics in
the lower ring.  The analogue holds for the up facing photo.

(All of that is untested.)

cheers, lukas

Do not believe the naysayers who say it cannot be done.
