As well as gpu-stitching, the hugin-2009.2.0 beta also has another new feature 'seam blending before exposure fusion'.
The usual way Hugin stitches a bracketed panorama is to exposure fuse stacks and then seam blend these stacks together. The alternative, which is to seam blend each exposure level into a separate panorama and then exposure fuse these 'layers' together, hadn't been implemented as it isn't as versatile. However, it was often requested and is now available as an option in the Stitcher tab (thanks to Gerry Patterson for adding this). Interestingly this new mode doesn't require the photos to be in 'stacks', or even require complete coverage of each exposure level. Given a 'normal' panorama taken on auto-exposure, it will effectively seam blend photos with similar exposure, but switch to exposure fusion to blend photos with large EV differences. This tutorial shows how to stitch such an 'unstitchable' auto-exposed panorama using hugin-2009.2.0: http://hugin.sourceforge.net/tutorials/auto-exposure/ -- Bruno --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
