“馬鞍山運動場 Ma On Shan Sports Ground” / 香港體育建築全景之形 Hong Kong Sports Architecture Panoramic Forms / SML.20130326.7D.36333-SML.20130326.7D.36359-Pano.Cylindrical-360x78
I was wrong—it seems that you do still need a pano head even with modern technology.
Previously I made the opinion that modern software should be able to stitch these images shot using normal pan heads [1] and that the pano head is mostly a luxury items. But when I actually worked on the image it appears that I was very wrong about it.
As you see here the seams a highly problematic at the near end of the lens. The far end is always going got be ok, but he near end poses challenge for Hugin it would appear.
SML Apologies—but I never said that I am always right.
This 360-degree pano is stitched using 24 full-resoltion 7D RAW files. Trust that when I get a pano head I will revisit this.
