Thanks Sebboh!
I don't use my CZJ 80mm f2.8 very much, planning to flog it back to Ebay....I like it, but not enuff to hold onto.

I need to follow this thread.
Special thanks goes to:
Gunzorro - for starting it
Denoir - for crystal-clear reasons to "what's the point?"
Obik - for narrowing the scope beyond (or should it be below..) imagination
Sebboh - for several super-images (soon I cant take any more shots of your daughter ;-)
Very inspiring.
What would be the best SW to stitch say a 4 columns x 2 rows of vertical images?
//Wilhelm, going for an update of the software library.

sebboh, CampX and Michael49 -- Awesome stuff there!! You guys rock!
Wilhelm -- Thanks for your kind words. Yes, the contributors to this thread have been amazing!
So, you are going to do 8 images -- two rows of four? That is easily done. I use PS Elements 8, and now there are newer versions. Of course I first PP the RAW in LR3, then export as smaller jpgs for the stitching (usually 1200 to 1600 on long dimension), then import back to LR3 for final cropping and any additional PP primping on the jpeg. I'm not trying to make wall size, and might run into trouble with final images over about 35MB or too many images. But 10 or 12 are no problem at all.
Others can advise you on more comprehensive (expensive) software.
**********
Here are a few from this last weekend take with the nice (but out-of-production) Canon 35-350/3.5-5.6L lens. The second two were cross-posted on the 35-350 thread in the Canon Forum.
I flipped this one to fit more easily, and conveys more of the abstract expressionism I enjoy.
3 shots (originally) vertical, 350mm @ f/8.

2 shots horizontal, 90mm @ f/8.

thanks wilhelm and gunzorro!
wilhelm - there's lots of software that can do that pretty easily. if you already use photoshop it can do it automatically quite well using the photomerge function (though it eats up more ram and swap space than is necessary). if you don't already have something that can do it, hugin is free, and seems to do a very good job, and allows for a lot of manual control if you want.
here's another ~50 shot pano (2 vertically oriented rows) with the contax g 45/2:

Thanks for the tips, apparently I can use my current PS CS5 then. Will do that.

Here is one I shot at Lake Wenatchee, using a film based Gaoersi 6x17 pano camera with a 90mm Rodenstock Grandagon lens on Fujichrome 100.

One more: Joshua Tree National Park, taken with a Bronica GS1 6x7 camera with a 65/4 PG lens. Film was Fujichrome 100 with a four frame stitch...

^ The real hidden valley no? I think I see a boulder problem I've attempted in the scene.
Great shots!

Sebboh, This shot Rocks!
You make me want that Contax G 45 real bad.

Here's a place called Maria square from today, sort of pano of an emptied fountain waiting for winter. My son climbing a norse god with large hammer on the left. My first pano/stitch try, 9 images (3x3) handheld. Contax G28 on the NEX 5N.

That worked out rather well for a handheld pano, although you can still see some slight errors when looking for them. The overall effect more than makes up for slight technical imperfections though in my opinion. I also really like the rendering from that lens. Wide open I guess?

You're right, I can see at least two pretty obvious now. Thanks for checking. Funny I did not see them when doing the image - I was probably too occupied grasping how the menu alternatives worked...
Yes, it's wide open.

A bit of a different shooting situation for me. I went hunting today, therefore didn't bring my big guns (7D and various lenses). Instead, all I had was my daughters pink Samsung ES15 point and shoot, 10.2 megapixel, sub $80 on sale last year at Toys-r-Us.
5 shots stitched from the large jpeg setting, fully auto as its all the camera has!
Hat Creek valley, near Cache Creek, British Columbia. One of North America's largest coal deposits lies underneath these fertile ranchlands, and due to very loud voices against mining it and building a coal-fired generating plant in the 1970's (thankfully), this valley should remain pristine for generations.

I am digging through old photos and came across a few that are panoramic to some degree, albeit cropped down heavily from 6x7:
Mosquito Bay, Abel Tasman NZ. Mamiya 7II 50/4.5 Fuji Reala:
Same day, different bay, Te Puketea, Abel Tasman, NZ:
Mamiya 7 80mm lens Fuji Reala:

I am sorry for the small-ish images, my Photobucket account shrinks them up pretty bad. They do look their best at larger sizes.
