Panorama Software From 2018 Still Embarrassing Modern Apps

Sometimes the old ways are the best


S
hooting panos is both an artistic and a technical test of your photographic skills. From an artistic perspective you need to quite literally see the big picture and from a technical perspective, panos are rarely easy to stitch together.

And while shooting good panoramic images is, like everything else in photography, a question of practice and experimentation – the process of stitching them together is entirely reliant on the quality of the app you’ve chosen to combine them with.

There are plenty of apps available, both commercial and open source, but very few of them could be rated as excellent. Often the pano tools bundled with RAW editors are lacking in one way or another – Capture One for instance might be a top tier editor, but its pano tool is shite

So when I heard that a long forgotten high-end pano app had been made available for download and use free of charge, it felt like the universe correcting a wrong.
