In tonight’s blog article, I’ll be talking about my new-found, rediscovery of Microsoft Photosynths.
I think it was about a year ago that I first found out about photosynths, but at the time, the program was still full of bugs, didn’t always work properly, and if I remember correctly, used to cost… or maybe I was just too lazy to install the program. I forget, it’s been a long time.
However, almost two months ago I had gone to Robson Square to take a series of photos for a 360 panorama, and I thought, how great it would be, if I could try using my photos that I took that day to make a photosynth. I had around 200 photos I took, just standing in one spot.
So, yesterday, I made a Photosynth, and today I made a Panorama.
Both of which have their flaws and have their strengths. However, the stairs didn’t turn out the way I wanted them to on the panorama. In the end, I wasn’t able to find a method to correct the issue, and I uploaded the panorama as is. I still like it. That’s the downside of free software, it doesn’t always have the best accuracy.
To finish with tonight’s post, I would now like to share two more stitches using these sets of photos.
Both of these were done with Hugin, another photo stitching software, which I was able to make a “small planet effect.”
Enjoy!!
