It has been ages since I last updated my blog, there’s not much activity going on except our forums photo road trip in Laguna. We covered 4 Municipalities of the said Province, Majayjay, Liliw, Nagcarlan & Los Baños. Photos can be seen here.
While in University of the Philippines in Los Baños field, I experimented on shooting panorama. I took this 5 photos using my new Giotto’s tripod.
Then I used Photoshop CS3’s Photo Merging function to merge the 5 photos into 1 panoramic image.
From what I’ve the key to taking good panoramic image is a sturdy tripod & a panoramic tripod head, this will keep the images aligned & easy to stitch. I put my Giotto’s MT970 Tripod to a test, it’s quite heavy at 2.5kgs., but it’s sturdy enough for a panorama shot. The only problem is, I don’t have a panoramic tripod head.
The answer is my new Giotto’s MH7302 Ballhead, it equipped with a 360° dial for panoramic shooting.
The weather was not that good for panoramic shooting yesterday, I’m waiting for a better weather to once again experiment on shooting panorama.
