For a same panoramic field of view, you'll just have to take one, two or three more photos!
Say you use a 24 megapixels body thus 6,000 x 4,000 pixels if you're holding your camera horizontally (landscape mode), your final panorama will "only" be 4,000 pixels high while it would have been 6,000 pixels high held vertically (portrait mode). Finally, your final file will be shorter in pixels. It doesn't matter! Direct the camera horizontally allows to shoot a wide panorama with less photos, that's all, and in return you won't always be able to photograph the top of a building or a church. Below it's risky - though possible - if there's a problem of exposure and above, it forces to make "too many" photos but if you have to choose, if you're taking the photos with your camera hand-held, it's better to have more than less overlap. Piece of advice! The photos need to overlap about 30%.

It's completely possible for a piece of software to stitch together photos that overlap less but if there are differences of exposure between two consecutive photos, it won't have much space to make luminosity and/or harmonious color corrections that won't be visible as in the example below, above all in the sky: Why is that? Why not more or less than 30%? The software will use this overlap zone to stitch the two photos together invisibly. You thus have to take photos that slightly overlap. up to 360°! If a building is really high, don't hesitate to frame upwards and if it really doesn't fit, step back and if you can't, then yes, you may choose a short focal!!! I'm kidding of course, but really I don't like too short focals in panoramic photography.ĥ - If you want to get the best quality, shoot in RAW but then I invite you to read my complete guide in 14 steps of photography by stitching ! Select this option.ģ - Focus with the autofocus THEN DEACTIVATE the autofocus - panorama software doesn't like photos taken with different focuses too much.Ĥ - Don't always choose the shortest focals but try 50 or 35 mm (or 24 mm in APS-C format) - Don't forget that the width of the panorama is given by the number of photos.
Piece of advice! Certain cameras allow to automatically correct the vignetting of the photos if you're working in JPEG. Additionally, it allows to have less vignetting hence less darkening in the corners and at the edges of the photo and a sharpness at the edges of the photo.

Piece of advice! It's really better that all the photos have the same exposure, and if you set your camera in full automatic mode, there can be big luminosity differences that will be visible, above all in the sky.Ģ - If you can, set the diaphragm around f8.0 / f11.0 - It increases the depth of field thus the really sharp focusing zone.

If you want to make good panoramic photographies every time, it's very important to follow these first pieces of advice about the settings of your camera:ġ - If you can, set the exposure in manual mode (M) - You're the one deciding the exposure of your photo and above all it will be the same for all the photos so you won't have the problem afore mentioned. First of all, it's better to make certain settings on the camera.

How to take the photos to stitch? Here are the most important point to remember to make your panoramic photographies by image stitching well. Then, we'll take a look at an accessory very often useful: a panoramic head.īut why then would we buy a special head called panoramic head? How does it work? How to do your best with your camera in hand? Let's start by reviewing the settings of your camera that you need to control to improve your chances to make a panorama that will stitch correctly. Then, I'll give you all my advice to best set up your camera. Certain models, very well designed, now cost less than $200 / €200 and are very light and very easy to use. Even if it's entirely conceivable to shoot the photos with the camera hand-held, the stitching quality or more accurately its easiness will be greatly improved if you use a panoramic head.Let's see what it's about.
