Originally posted by BigJPR Well since I was trying this seriously for the first time, I was like, if I fix the distortion of each individual photo before processing it in Panorama in PS then maybe it won't work as well as if I stitch them first and then try to fix the "perspective." But will look at other things as I keep a watchful eye for more multiple photograph panorama's.
This is what I usually do (and I don't say it's the right way to do it);
- shoot handheld (too lazy to carry my small travel tripod)
- when developing in LR I use the lens profile tool to correct distorsions for all the photos, then slightly add some clarity and vibrance if needed (same amounts for all the pictures)
- stitch the photos using ArcSoft Panorama Maker
- use LR again on the final pano for slight adjustments if necessary
Here's the last example (my every weekend pano):
For the finishing touch I used FastStone Image Viewer, though.
