Initial Situation

Bearbeiten

The lens is too small to photograph the entire building:

This example uses a series of photos with overlapping areas. The Nikon D50 used in this case is able to take 1.5 photographs per minute when set to continuous mode. For a series of single shots rotate slightly while photographing. Use single shot mode if there is a difficult lighting situation because otherwise the pictures will be blurry. The Nikon camera applies the first picture's light metering to all pictures, which is an advantage. If the lighting conditions are rich in contrast a bracketed series of pictures is recommended. The rest will Photoshop do.

Automated Stiching

Bearbeiten
 

File -> Automate -> Photomerge... Layout: depends, set check mark to

  • Vignette Removal
  • Geometric Distortion Correction

and than click ok , result:

Without further editing none of the pictures is usable, the distortion must be corrected, which unfortunately influences the image sharpness.

  • Auto: usable, next steps: rotate and correct distortion
  • Perspective: geometrically correct but as photograph not usable here.
  • Cylindrical: maybe the best working basis
  • Collage: also ok, the straight roof edges are a good working basis. But too distorted
  • Spherical: like Collage, but crooked roofs
  • Reposition: best solution in preview but on closer inspection unusable
