Nice shot Derby.
A point for advice, please: I'm thinking that, to avoid exposure differences
when taking the frames for a panoramic, it's better to set it to manual and
thus get the same throughout each frame? I think that will avoid what I've
found before, different saturation in, particularly, the sky from frame to
frame.
Am I right?

I know this view has been done millions of times. But I thought it would
be a good test for the 6x7 I recently acquired. Boy, if I'm going to be
scanning many more of these negs in, I am definitely going to have to beef
up my rig. The full size of this pano is 18689x6327.
Love the camera. Didn't use the leaf shutter in these shots, so the normal
mirror slap didn't seem to affect the sharpness that much.
And I discovered I DON'T like the Photomerge function in PS. It leaves
these ugly diagonal blend lines. Much better to do it by hand and adjust
channels.
Yes, I notice the blend around where the Opera House is could be better.
This frame was a bit tricky, because I didn't want to blow out the details
of the ferry wharf (which I did in any case), so the sky was
under-exposed. Might have to go back and take a couple, and do an HDR
blend.
