The Ultimate PANORAMA Photography Guide

Great video. Apple vision is coming and i want panaroma for every mountain i hike. I have r6 mk2 with 70-105mm. thank you for explaining everything so easily.

O have canon r7 and laowa 15 mm f2. And i cant do Panorama photo. 😢 Maybe without autofocus cant make ?

Well explained, simple to follow, do more videos like this

Nice!

How do you mount these panorama prints for hanging on a wall please?

Great informative video Adam. This is something I would like to have a go at. Would you say you have a "go to" aspect cropping ratio for the majority of your prints - I'm also thinking about this in regards to getting prints done - as I don't have photo printer will certain sizes/aspect ratios be better/easier for printing. Thanks Martin

Thank you so much for the video, go some good idea for shooting panorama with the use of lenses horizontally and vertically .

Great video, thank you!! I was lazy a few times and just got a handheld pano using autofocus and never had a problem with the sharpness or details, maybe lightroom has some "focus-stacking" ability or I just focused on the same focal point, I don´t know...
I would be curious how to do a focus stacking AND a panorama, for example when you want to do multiple layers of a pano, not just one line and what happens, when you focus on your foreground in one line and your background in the second line and merge them in LR, any experience? Thnak you!!

I find stitching is my niche

Quick question. Do you leveling base or do you adjust the legs?

Waaw your print looks huge. I once shot a pano but the strip band was tin any idea ?

I love taking pictures but I never get to see them afterwards. But at my work I have a two monitors and panoramic pictures are great to use on them since it allows me to get the wide view. I have many panoramas by now and have them on a slide show on my desktop. It's also a great way to start a meeting when I'm presenting because most of the time my colleagues focuses on the pictures and we casually start the meeting. So my point is panoramas are great on monitors of you have more than one monitor or a wide monitor.

Such great tips and so well spoken. Bravo 👏

Using a telephoto or 50mm normal lens is also very important.

Manual settings and manual focus is the best advice here.

How often do you shot multi-row panorama?

Thank you, I will start to take panorama in woodland so Your Video is a good information source. I will get the Nodal slide a Levering plate and a panorama head. I will use a Zeiss 50mmF2.0 Macro or a Nikon 45mmF2.8 PC. For open landscape I will get an AFS70-200mm E VR to my D700/D800E I have an 85mm F2.8 PC lens that I will try to use but it may be too short. I also have a 24mmF3.5 PC but I'm not sure if a wide angle is a good choice for panorama due to distortion.

Thank you for these videos that inspire us in more ways than one.

Absolutely brilliant video thanks. This has really helped me a lot.

I came for quick tips on panos but ended watching the whole video because of the great explanations and the incredible photos. Thanks Adam!!

Hi
thanks for the video.. I am using lightroom CC.

my question is, what is the sequence of taking multiple photos for merging? where I have a horizontal building scene with sky and sea, does it matter where to start?


should i start
1- from sky to sea or
2- from sea to sky or
3- from left to right then sky then sea?

Thanks

Over saturation and detracts from a photo in the same way that gilding detracts from the beauty of a lily. It is too much make-up on an already beautiful woman. But I have learned a lot from your video. Thank you.

Thank you Adam that was a very interesting guide, it was so helpful having so mush detain in the one session.

nice video indeed

Fantastic photo and print! I do panos often and keep a short cheatsheet on hand with the nodalpoints of various lenses I use. It's actually not the nodalpoint but most people just refer to it in that way. It is definitely not the position of the physical aperture though, and the position is different for every focal length on a zoom. Zeiss will give you the nodalpoint position to the millimeter for all their lenses btw in their specs. That said, it's mostly irreleveant for distant subjects or things with soft features like water like you said.

Beautiful shot !

Great advice and video, very helpful and enjoying your channel!

How you do panorama is tough for a beginner, just good with a very experienced photographer. If the landscape is an ocean, it's hard to hold a level of water in one line.

Thank you so much for this video , i had a shoot and a night before i wasnt able to sleep because i didnt know how to click a panorama when i was told last moment i would need this.Thank you again

I just purchased a Canon Pro-1000 and I can't seem to find the profile to print larger than 17x22" in Lightroom. Can you share how you're printing?
Also, I am curious whether you are using Glossy or Luster paper?

I’m still not sure why to stitch vertical shots rather than horizontal shots. Is it so that you have to take more of them and it creates the same image using more megapixels? Also, do most lenses have a mark to indicate where it should be rotated?

you should do voiceovers in cartoons.

This was actually very inspiring! I'll have a whack at panoramas myself the next time I get a chance :D I wonder how much of the near foreground can you actually shoot so that the change in perspective doesn't make it unstitchable. Anyway, great work with these videos !

You are a breath of authentic and unpretentious air, sir

Hey man.. I follow all the rules, even focus manually, I use a tripod 30degree rule, low iso and what not and my images are never ever as sharp as these.. full of grain not focused etc and I shoot also with a7c and high end lenses.. would you happen to have an idea what I might be doing wrong :( thank you in advance

Very useful and informative tutorial, thank you, Adam.

Great video and makes me want to get out and shoot more panos

Brill 👍🏻

Great video , many thanks , top stuff , regards from NZ

Superb.. thanks for sharing.. some pertinent points made. Love your sincerity ❤️🙏🏽

Fantastic video. Off to Lanzarote in May and will try this method. BTW, do you know if it works the same for say a receding line of hills rather than one that is 'face on'? Thanks again.

Great video and tutorial. The images look amazing!

Pointing your feet at where you want to end up is how you do a hand held pan in video as well. In video you start before the section you want and end past where you want to stop to eliminate the shake when starting and ending the image. That probably doesn't apply to stills.

This was a great video. I use an EOS R, 70 - 200 f4, and Acratec pano gear to make extremely detailed high resolution images. I have settled on 2:4.5 and 2:6 aspect ratios. I make prints as large as 36”x108” with incredible detail.

Brilliant video 👍

Can you please let me know which canon printer you use? Thanks.

Thank you Adam for the video. I have a question for you. I had been doing some pano's in LR for awhile this past month to check it out.....however, I did send the images over to PS a few times and to me PS does a way better job of stitching, finding the edges. Have you seen that yourself? I really do. Some are 5 images and a few are 15 to 33. They come out really great. Neither programs like doing large sunset sky images with far off mountains. Have you had issues with that yourself? Clouds match up perfectly, so I don't quite know what to make of it. Thanks from Montana.

Adam, I own the same printer but had not realised that one can now print wide landscapes from the printer. I am assuming that you just have cut the required length of paper from a roll or as you said you can but panoramic paper. Would you mind confirming that is what you do? Many thanks

Panorama is something you need to make a print out of it to be able to admire the sheer awesomeness of the world. All the efforts of doing pano makes it worth every bits.
