Panoramic photo stitching is the process of generating (360 degree) panoramic photos with photo stitching software. The original photos can be taken with professional equipment like fisheye lens and digital SLR, or with normal lens. Panoweaver is a professional tool for creating 360 degree panorama. Panoweaver can stitch any number of photos, both fisheye photos and normal photos to create a panoramic image. For professional photographers, fisheye lens is usually used to get fisheye photos to stitch a full spherical panoramic image. If you are just using a normal digital camera with normal lens, it is also possible to get a beautiful panoramic image with Panoweaver 6.0. Before taking photos, first check panorama photography tips and
compatible equipment, and then take necessary number of photos using a pano head. Automatic stitching and manual stitching are both supported in Panoweaver 6.00. Automatic stitching is applied when there are enough matching points between adjacent photos; when there are not enough matching points, manual stitching should be applied to insert matching points manually. It is recommended to use pano head and tripod to take the photos. If you want to shoot hand held, check these useful tips. The following photo is taken with Nikon D200 + 17-55mm lens.
