I just tried out stitching panoramic images with the Hugin software for Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot Linux. Here are two pan shots.
The first is at the North Avenue-Edsa area taken at SM -City. From 5 photos!
The second is at Philcoa area. From 3 photos.
All photos taken with Olympus VG-110.
You dont have to buy a panoramic camera just to have simple pan shots. However, an inexpensive SONY camera will take smoother panoramic images.
I have tried Hugin a ways back, always been a photographer, and always been a Linux user, so the two seemed perfect. The problem I run into most is poor UI design, and poor workflow in these kinds of apps.
ReplyDeleteIf you interested in my photography checkout my blogs: Freed Up Thoughts
The first is my Portfolio, and The second is my Techblog, though the last 6 or 7 posts have revolved more around one of my Courses.
Sincerely,
Tobias Mann
Thanks Tobias, the software developers need critical but constructive feedback like yours.
DeleteI cannot complain though, better than nothing, and it seems Hugin needs users to post more helpful articles on its use and example photos.
