Here's my first attempt at a stitch assist photo. Show me yours.

Interesting. My tank's too small to require a stitch. The only stitch I've ever done is of my LFS:

Not bad at all... It is hard to tell that it was stitched!

 

[TheVillageIdiot]

hurray panos!

w/ a good tripod head and stitch software, you can get some spectacular results...

What stitch programs are you guys using?
I need a program like that...

 

[mwood]

The one that came with my Cannon S3IS. The program is better than I am at using it. Not hard to use but you have to start with good photos.

Not really tank related, but last week I took this 360-degree pano just for fun...as you can tell I didn't lock my exposure, so stitching was quite difficult. I used photoshop, but I think in this case it might be an example of what not to do.

Oh yeah, and a tripod would've been great, but I didn't have it on me at the time.

When doing panoramas, setting the camera to a full manual exposure will help greatly. Having a constant exposure throughout the entire range helps to eliminate differences in brightness between frames.

Nice work folks!

Been practicing.

Definite improvement! Looks a lot better!

This one. :lol:

PS, my tank isn't exactly small.

Here's a couple of mine, non reef related.

Usually I prefer to stich by hand, as I tend to be a little more picky. Also, in photos like "March Thaw" (Taken at High Cliff State Park, WI) it's almost impossible to blend the horizon w/o a good amount of graussan blur. I've never been able to stich the sky w/o graussan blur for some reason. It's too smooth of a texture, the edges never match exposure. Might be my image sensor is more sensitive on one side than the other? If so it's too small a difference to nottice with anything else.
