Panini is a viewer for multi-platform. Thomas is currently working on a new PaniniPro which will be a paid version. The previous free version is available for download and it does have a Mac version. And there is the PangeaVR plugin ( http://www.pangeasoft.net/pano/plugin/downloads.html) Harry

Well that's one of those easy situations. When you can see the horizon clearly like that, horizontal CPs distributed about the pano on the horizon should give you great results. Contrary to how one might casually think, placing them far apart (with very wide angle images) produces diminishing

Thanks for the info Harry. BTW, As I read these forums I've intensified my desire to be fair, honest, appreciative and not overly casual when speaking about panorama software. I've come to notice that most of the the people around here have had some hand in making it! Thanks to Thomas for his

Hi, I need directions finding something inside the source code. I've been grepping and searching for hours I find it annoying that when I cancel the optimization step I cannot apply the currently best results. [update: I might have been testing this in an older version. The problem

Ah the Pilgrim monument. I haven't been there. Very nice panoramas. They all look very well done to me. You clearly have very high production standards. When I was working for the NPS I did a similar style panorama from the top of the Cape Lookout Light (not even remotely as nice as yours

[hugin-ptx] Which EXIF data does Hugin need?

2011-11-03 Thread Thomas Pryds
I'm trying to do a panorama from some .fpx files which contain fotographs that I shot many years ago with a Kodak DC210 which I don't have any more. However, as only very few programs read Kodak's .fpx format, I've converted the files into .jpg -- a process which omitted all meta data, sadly. So

I don't know how to answer your question, but you can make hugin work without that. Many times I use images without any of those informations. You can just guess a possible value and then try to optimize the result until it gets ok. Cheers, Carlos E G Carvalho (Cartola) http://cartola.org/360

The placement of the images don't depend on those values. Those are related to the distortion of the images. The positioning of images are made using control points. You can try to solve your problem with less images and starting with only position optimization, like y,p,r to try to make the
