All the answers to this post assumed the raw processing is done before the stitching (which would work on TIFF/JPG… files). I totally agree on the objections.
However, does it make sense to* combine raw files into a raw output*, that can further be processed in rawtherapy ? Distortions, stitching, etc could presumably be done on raw data arrays in an equal manner as they would be done on pixels. Not ? In practice, there could be a prior-conversion into jpeg with fixed (low-relevant) processing parameters, just to get the stitching parameters (PTO) and previsualisation, but the stitcher would work on RAW files. Would absolute data values for one shot not have the same reference as for a different shot, and consequently merging files has no sense ? I understood that precisely RAW format leave the normalizing to the processor, recording brute sensor data, so merging RAW files seems to have sense to me. My question is just theoretic and blunt curiosity. I'm not spending, nor asking anyone to spend time on this. It seems like a huge work to rewrite a stitcher, especially ending up writing one for as many different raw formats as exist (re-using rawtherapy file-opening library, presumably). Does it make sense at all ? (Brings me to the question to start with : *why do people want RAW support in Hugin* ? because they find the workflow a pain ? or for technical and image quality reasons ?) Regards, Marcel.
