wwp@yahoogroups.com: Re: Is there a software to automatically stitch cubic panorama images? ptgroup 2007-Oct-03 13:48:00
Leo,
it depends : a 8mm on a Crop 1.5/1.6 reqiures 4 images (though 3 might do but lesser quality)
There are systems with a Nikon FC E8 lens (??) that needs only 2.

I personally take a Nikon D80 with Sigma 8mm: 4 + n mounted app. 3° up 
or with a Nikon 10.5 : 6 + z mounted app. 3° down
So you see: it depends on your equipment, there are several pages where you can see how much images are nedded.
This is a very good one: http://www.vrwave.com/panoramic/photography/lens_database.html
It doesn´t respond from Germany (my computer doesn´t open the url)- might be a local problem.
Ciao
Mike

  HI Mike, 

  Genrally, how many images are required to generate a spherical pano image? Do you have such experience? 
  As you know, autopano is not a free software. Do you what kind of free stitch software can do a better job? 

  Thanks! 

  Leo
