With PTGui, creating high quality panoramic images is easy. Panorama Tools can be difficult to use and that's why PTGui was created. Panorama Tools is probably the most versatile stitching software,

Tools, software to stitch panoramic images. Once linked, the images will be treated as a whole, with the same yaw, pitch and roll if your images were taken handheld, however, choose to enable HDR mode but don’t let PTGui link up the images.If you would like to create a panorama on Windows, give PTGui a try. PTGui will detect bracketed images as their exposure times follow a pattern, and ask you if you want to link the bracketed images. This technique maps one set of colors to another to approximate the appearance of HDR images. Tone mapping is a method for HDR imaging and printing, considering CRT and LCD monitors and printouts have a more limited dynamic range than achievable in an HDR image.

If you own an SLR camera, turn on and manual mode and use its automatic bracketing function (which is otherwise unachievable through digital compact cameras), to take a sequence of images with varying exposure times. They combine the exposure brackets shot in camera to produce an HDR image. HDR photography aims at overcoming the limited dynamic range of the camera sensor, by combining multiple exposures of the same scene (“bracketed” exposures) in order to maximize detail in light and dark areas. In a longer exposure, details in the shadows will be distinct, but highlights might appear washed out, as typical of a sunrise/sunset shot in a short exposure, however, highlights can be exposed properly, but darker objects will descend into an unrecognizable mess. DSLR and mirrorless cameras typically have larger sensors, and feature a wider dynamic range than compact cameras with smaller sensors.

Watch this video tutorial by Florian Knorn for a full walkthrough.ĭynamic range is a photography term, referring to the range of light intensities from the darkest shadows to the brightest highlights in images. Now if you check on the seam again, you will notice that it has already moved. Now you are able to find the source image where that hidden object from the panorama is on paint and fill that in green using the same two tools explained above. Want to make an object that’s currently hidden visible again because it’s cut into two by a stitch seam, you need to bring out the Detail Viewer and choose to “Show Seams”. Want to block out the tripod, you need to paint it red, which you can encircle with the Draw tool and fill your enclosed object with red using the Fill tool With PTGui, you can paint the objects you want to mask out in red or green, but notice that red is for hiding objects from your final panorama, while green is for preserving objects so they come out visible in your output. This technique is used to fix blending errors. Masking is frequently resorted to when there are moving objects in your panoramic images that result in doubles, or when you don’t want to see your tripod showing on the nadir image. That way, by having your 360 camera swiveling on a fixed point, you have ensured that the perspective remains the same, and saved yourself the headache of having stitching errors. This technique is also explained by its inventor, Philippe Hurbain on his personal website. If you don’t have a panohead, you can also craft a philopod, which is a piece of string tying the no-parallax point of your camera at one end with a weight at the other end.

To solve that problem, you need to attach a panoramic head, panoheadfor short, onto your tripod, to help rotate your camera around the front of the lens. Now suppose if you mount your camera on a tripod and start turning it on its base, the lens/perspective is constantly changing as you take images for your panorama.

The viewpoint for your camera lens is its entrance pupil, also known as no-parallax point or nodal point. To avoid having stitching errors, we recommend that you avoid having parallax at all costs that is also to say, ALL of your images to be stitched into a panorama must be shot from ONE single viewpoint. Parallax is a phenomenon where two objects in your source images appear to have changed their relative positions from one to another, because of changes in the camera’s perspective.
