One advantage I have found is that I can make several smaller sections that can then be stitched into a larger pano later. No other stitching software I have tried has been able to stitch multi image "sub panos". The other disadvantage I have found is that you have no manual control so when it works it works fantastic, but when it gets confused (very rare) there is no help for it. But as free software, It can't be beat. And if you don't like it, you aren't out anything. Randy ========== Randy Berbaum Champaign, IL |

"Luttrell" wrote in message oups.com... Can anyone add their 2 cents on this subject? Well, I'm certainly no expert on the subject, but the "Panorama Maker 3" software that came with my FZ30 did an excellent job of stitching together 10-8 meg photos of the eastern side of the Sierra Mountains. I was quite impressed by the ease of use, and the professional results. Robert Cunningham |

I'm sure others here can give further details, or you might want to do the right thing and search past postings - there are plenty. A lot of folk recommend Autostitch, but I can't. It crashes frequently and erratically with my (admittedly quite large and detailed) images - and when it does succeed, its occasional mismatches just leave me scratching my head, because the user can't really control the result (unless I'm missing something and heaven knows I've experimented, read the readme's, forum posts, etc).. If your needs are modest, it may be ok and is worth a try at that price (free), however. |
