A couple nights ago, I noticed that the skies just before sunset were very pretty, so I took some HDR panoramas. I don't know when I'll get around to processing them as either HDR or pano, but I've got the raw files. I just realized that using the same data that they use for astrotracer, and storing things like position, and xyz of camera direction, they could write software that would quickly, and very accurately stitch together panoramas, knowing where the camera was looking in each frame.
Along the same lines, they could also use the exposure data in each frame to construct HDR mapping. Even storing accurate accelerometer readings you could correct for a tilted horizon in post processing, even beyond what the image stabilization is capable of. I have a related question. Is there some sort of rule of thumb as to how much you should bracket when doing an HDR? Or is it simply as little as you need so that you aren't blowing away any highlights or shadows? -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
