I've not been shooting too much recently, however with the holiday period coinciding with a decent period of fine, calm & warm weather, I was tempted to pick up a camera or two and head up one of the hills to capture a view and sunset or two. The walk would also remove a christmas mince pie from the system as a bonus
This one was four frames shot with the Sigma DP2M and stitched with Autopano Pro. Shot from the hill in Ngaio; suburb of Wadestown in the foreground, "Cake Tin" in the middle with the port, city off to the left, airport off to the left))

All the best for 2016!

Re: Fine weather pano
A little later, this time shot with the GX7 and 45-150mm lens. I'd not noticed it before, but this lens obviously vignettes wide open, which proved challenging when it came time to stitch. Still, it did provide a "learning opportunity".... I also played around some more with the stitching capabilities of Affinity Photo, and came away quite impressed. In the end though, I managed to get a pretty good result with my usual Autopano Pro with the help of some forum reading.
This was taken from the same position as the shot above, just with a longer lens.

Re: Fine weather pano
Both lovely shots, Paul. What I do if there is a chance of mucho vignetting is to shoot more frames, for a better overlap.

Re: Fine weather pano
These already had quite a bit of overlap (1/3). Since I'd upgraded to the latest version of APP, I'd not setup the default colour correction to also correct for vignetting. It only seemed to really affect multi-row panos shot in portrait mode. Those shot in landscape mode, or single row, stitched without issue.PFMcFarland wrote:Both lovely shots, Paul.

Lovely! I was already thinking of emigrating to NZ, but now I'm even more convinced I should.
