Use a prime lens between 35mm & 50mm on FF. Lower FL will introduce distortion and higher FL results in too many frames. So 35mm - 50mm is a good balance. If the FL is closer to the FL of human eye(43mm), then the viewer my feel being there. 'being there' means enjoying the scene where the objects are in proportional size. Wide angle lens gives out total opposite effect. Panorama helps cover large area without rendering object in disproportional sizes.

Reference point is very important for getting correct prospective. So try to take the picture of the Reference point, it may be difficult to memorize it. When editing pano, if the reference point is correct, then perspective of the output may match the scene. This article is must read. Also I suggest start with PTAssembler because it exposes to the basics of stitching. Another good tool is PtGui. PTAssembler Help |
