 I just uninstalled TeTex and installed texlive 2007 as that's available.

 I now get:

 When checking, the pdf's seem to be built correctly as the thumbpdf only
 provides a thumbnail for the pdf AFAIK.

OK.

 The html's are not entirely correct as the images are not available.

Ok, this is my error. I should copy the .gif -files into this directory too.
(I did it manually, and now I can see the images in firefox)

 Currently the html's are built as split files. This means that inside the
 doc directory another directory enblend.html and enfuse.html are
 created where all the html files are placed.

This is the same, as automake makes here.

 The png's remain at doc level.

Same error for automake. So we will be the first with correct creation. :)

 When an unsplit html is created it remains as enfuse.html (file) in the doc
 directory at the same level as the png's.
 I'm not sure the autoconf does this correct as currently the .configure
 step fails.

configure step, or make? I had to call

make VPATH=. html
to make it create enblend.html.

Hello,

looks like the problem is that in previous boost releases

I think this is easily fixed by unconditionally doing the #include.

 Mentioning the dependencies (as is now) is probably a good compromise.

 That sounds like a bug, could you add it to the tracker?


 The original english label says Capture Date and as such that label is
 incorrect,  but it depends on what you want to see. Exif data contains three
 image dates:
 - File Modification Date/Time
 - Date/Time Original
 - Create Date

 Hugin displays the File Modification Date/Time and as such this is a
 bug.
 My preference would be to show the Create Date and call that Capture
 date (as that's correct behaviour).
 But it should also show the File Modification Date/Time  and name it
 accordingly.
 Date/Time Original can be used if you make copies of images.

 Aperture changes this File Modification Date/Time when you (in this case
 George) make modifications to an image. If you use exiftool imagename.tif
 you will see what I mean. Note also the Aperture's behaviour is correct. In
 fact every image program that doesn't do this is not working correct.

 Harry



 Hello,

 I have commited a fix to show the correct date for Capture Date as was
 intended.   Trunk ,Rev 4484.  I'll look into adding a second date field for
 the File Modification Date/Time

 Best Regards,

 - Gerry



Thanks Gerry,

It works fine. I've got another request.
When working with stacks, it would be nice if the Exposure Compensation
would be displayed as well in the Images pane. Exiv2 calls that Exposure
bias like  Exposure bias   : -2 EV and uses ExposureBiasValue as
variable.
For me that's an even more important one than the photo date.
(Perhaps I should register a feature request, but I don't know if I do a
very simple request or a difficult request. Please let me know if you want
me to file a feature request for this.)

Hi Bruno,

Sorry for responding this late, but I only now stumble upon the line:
For users compiling from source: note that the minimum version of *
wxWidgets* supported is now 2.7.0, libpano13 needs to be at least 2.9.14,
and that Hugin now requires *GLEW* the OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library, *
freeglut* the OpenGL utility toolkit, and *libGLU* the OpenGL utility
library.

This should actually say something like:
For users compiling from source: note that the minimum version of *
wxWidgets* supported is now 2.7.0, libpano13 needs to be at least 2.9.14,
and that Hugin now requires *GLEW* the OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library, *

library. Note that the OpenGL utility toolkit and the OpenGL library are
default available frameworks on OSX (GLUT and OpenGL).

I'm not sure whether leaving it out or adding it will create extra
confusion: beginner compilers might try to compile freeglut and opengl on
OSX instead of using the default available frameworks, where experienced
compilers might think: duh, off course, why mentioning it.
I prefer having it in the release notes though as also experienced compilers
might think: OK, but why not using the default frameworks?, but that's
exactly what cmake does on OSX.

I'd be glad to help there.

 I assume you're on 
 http://wiki.panotools.org/Build_Hugin_for_Windows_with_SDK 
Yes.

 If it is OK for you, I suggest we do this mentoring session live on 
 this mailing list, so others can profit too. 
That's fine for me.

 I created the directory D:\huginbase\enblend
 Cloned the repository, result D:\huginbase\enblend\enblend.
 
 this means that you installed all the tools, as well as Guido's SDK?
I did. Just not wxWidgets that you mention later. Should this also be in 
the list of tools to install?
I downloaded it and installed it to C:\Programme\wxWidgets-2.8.10.

 Now I opened enblend_msvc2003.sln.
 what version of Visual Studio do you have? the file to open is open 
 huginbase/enblend/enblend_msvc2008.sln
I have Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition. I just didn't look closely 
enough. Now I took ...2008.sln. (But that doesn't change the result.) 
Strangely it cannot be opened by double clicking, but when dragged onto 
the MSVC window it works.

 the repository is currently in a broken state - a recent change breaks 
 the MSVC (and the new CMake) build. Only autotools works.
I don't know what autotools is, but I follow your steps to revert back 
to the unbroken stage.
 the workaround is to step a little bit back in time,   ...

 This will bring your enblend tree back in time. Now you can 
 continue with the build.
Done. Update to revision is the command in my TortoiseHG installation. 
And 523 the rev. no.

 Changed the target configuration to 'release'.
 There should be multiple configurations. ...
  If you have a good GPU, you may try to build the
 version with GPU. And if you often run out of disk space, build the 
 version without ImageCache. Also if your CPU supports SSE2, build the 
 version with SSE2. For example you can build Release SSE2,GPU.
The GPU option doesn't work with my Intel 945 Chipset but I needn't use 
it and I guess my Core2Duo T5500 (1.66GHz) supports SSE2, so Release 
SSE2,GPU is what I chose.

 *but* before doing this, you need to complete the SDK. The current SDK 
 lacks some of the dependencies to build enblend.
OK, this should be included in the wiki unless it is not fixed in the SDK.
 IIRC it is lcms that is missing (or outdated; 1.17 in the SDK and 1.18 
 referred to from the MSVC project files).
Looks like missing. In D:\huginbase\enblend I don't find any lcms*.* file.

 * download the source from http://www.littlecms.com/lcms-1.18a.zip
 * unpack inside the SDK folder
So I have D:\huginbase\enblend containing enblend\ ...
No, I think first I throw all that stuff from 
D:\huginbase\enblend\enblend\*.* one level up and resync it to be sure.
OK, now I have D:\huginbase\enblend\ with the enblend repository .hg in 
it and
D:\huginbase\lcms-1.18\. Probably I should move it inside ...\enblend.
- D:\huginbase\enblend\lcms-1.18\.

 * inside lcms-1.18 there is a Projects folder. Select the MSVC2008 
 project. Start it.
 * in the configuration manager, select to build lcms only. You do not 
 need the other tools (that will raise an error because they don't find 
 some dependencies)
This results in 
D:\huginbase\enblend\lcms-1.18\Projects\VC2008\LibRelease\*obj and 
...\vc90.idb
and a log with 0 errors and 41 warnings like
..\..\src\cmsio1.c(964) : warning C4063: case -1804014080 ist kein 
gültiger Wert für den Schalter der Enumeration icTagTypeSignature.
 d:\huginbase\lcms-1.18\include\icc34.h(352): Siehe Deklaration 
von 'icTagTypeSignature'

 once you built lcms, continue with building enblend.
Do I understand correctly that MSVC should realize wxWidgets is 
installed and use the TIFF/JPEG/PNG libraries from there?
Obviously not. MSVC still complains. If I understood the output

[hugin-ptx] Re: Canon 7D or SONY Alpha 850 - which one would you buy?

2009-09-26 Thread Tim Nugent
What do you need the high FPS for Yuv?

If you're on a cropped sensor I'd say the logical upgrade is to full frame,
particularly as you'll get a lot more width for shooting panos, so 5Dmark2
or D700 (although a D700x/s is rumoured). Too help fund it you could also
sell your video camera and just use the SLR for movies too.

Tim

2009/9/26 RueiKe ruei...@yahoo.com


 What type of bracketing capabilities do the A850D and the 7D have?  I
 heard that the Canons have only a max of 3 steps, but maybe this is
 only consumer level.  The Nikons support 3, 5, 7, and 9 steps at a max
 increment of 1EV, while I heard that Pentax supports 2EV increments,
 but only 3 steps.  Have you considered the Nikon D3 (or D700)?  It has
 excellent high ISO noise performance and prices have really come down.

 Next question would be what is the best lens for high resolution
 panos?  I am using the Voigtlander 20mm Color Skopar almost
 exclusively now.  Very compact and great CA performance.

  Hi all,
 
  This time I *must* upgrade my kit. It's a requirement for a job I landed
  and the budget pays for it. HDR, partial panoramas, long focal distance.
 
  I currently use a Canon 350D. From the pre-digital era I am a long time
  Minolta user and have some good glass, flash, accessories.
 
  In the meantime Minolta sold to SONY and the Alpha 850 seems a nice
  proposition (with reservation about the brand. The memory stick stuff is
  pathetic).
 
  My 350D kit was used mainly for the production of web-based material,
  particularly full spherical panoramas (7000x3500). It's still the old
  Sigma 8mm F/4, complemented with very cheap Sigma APS-C lenses just to
  have something in the range up to 200mm for the occasional use (and with
  Hugin I can nicely correct them to perfect rectilinear).
 
  Besides the specific job, my interests have shifted to higher
  resolutions (large prints) and partial multi-row panoramas for large
  prints, so I will want better glass than I have now in the range of
  20mm-200mm. I still do web-based full sphericals occasionally and if I
  had to change something for that application it would rather be the lens
  than the camera body.
 
   From my starting point I'd have to shell out more money on the Canon to
  reach the same quality of glass as on the SONY (and if I did, I could as
  well go 5D MkII?) - and that extra money is not in the budget. The body
  (including 5D MkII if I wanted) is.
 
  What I like about the 7D is 8FPS continuous mode and 1.0x viewfinder
  magnification.
 
  The a850 has only 3FPS (but is full frame, and the a900, which I also
  could still get through the budget, has 5FPS which is better than the 5D
  MkII).
 
  What worries me a little about the a850 (and a900) is the noise at high
  ISO (compared to the 5D MkII). But isn't that an even bigger problem for
  the 7D (with 18mpx crammed on an APS-C sensor)? Anybody has some
  experience in low light with the SONYs?
 
  Exposure Bracketing seems to be a weakness of both contenders. I had
  considered a Pentax K-7, but that would be a completely new system with
  plenty of components to buy right from the start, not just the body. And
  there would be other brands and models to consider too. I am open for
  suggestions.
 
  Has anybody made any experience with SONY Alpha 550 and its HDR mode?
  but anyway, it is not present on the a850 (nor on the a950).
 
  Which brings me back to the original choice: Canon 7D or SONY Alpha 850?
 
  Yuv

 If you're on a cropped sensor I'd say the logical upgrade is to full frame

not necessarily. for spherical panoramas FF has less angular resolution

that said, full frame is very attractive to me, coming from the 35mm 
film background, I miss the shallow depth of field effect, e.g. in 
portraits.

not yet. the current crop of SLRs are no good for movie making. They

Hi Rick,

RueiKe wrote:
 What type of bracketing capabilities do the A850D and the 7D have?

the usual, plain, boring -2/0/+2 AEB. there are, of course, workarounds, 
but I am really fed up of camera manufacturers not understanding such a 
basic need and implementing such a simple function as

for a= -x to +x
   shoot a picture
   increase the exposure value
   a=a+y
next

and let the user define x and y through the UI.

x=2 and y=2 is what Canon does.

x=6 and y=2 is what I'd like to do in many cases.


 heard that the Canons have only a max of 3 steps, but maybe this is
 only consumer level.

no, it's overall. I would call it engineer's deafness.


 The Nikons support 3, 5, 7, and 9 steps at a max
 increment of 1EV, while I heard that Pentax supports 2EV increments,

the 1EV steps is what disturbs me with Nikon. creates a lot of 
unnecessary junk. so they fixed y at 1.

Pentax has IMO the so far best implementation, but is also limited 
(reduced x range).


 Have you considered the Nikon D3 (or D700)?  It has
 excellent high ISO noise performance and prices have really come down.

I've looked at Nikon too, yes. I have good (as in: similar to Canon; 
and not as in: how I would expect a customer-centric business to 
operate) experience with the brand (I own a Nikonos V with plenty of 
accessories). I end up coming back to the Canon or SONY choice because I 
already have lenses and moving to Nikon, Pentax, or any other contender 
would break the budget. I am not inclined to top up at this point.


 Next question would be what is the best lens for high resolution
 panos?  I am using the Voigtlander 20mm Color Skopar almost
 exclusively now.  Very compact and great CA performance.

indeed the question of the lens comes even before the body.

If this was web resolution full spherical, I would not consider a full 
frame sensor; and I would consider the 7D to be an overkill (no need for 
such a great viewfinder; and 18mpx on an APS-C is overkill for the 
softness of the current generation of fisheye lenses).

For this specific work I'll be shooting in the 100mm to 200mm range - 
pano being a synonymous with composite or mosaic more than with wide 
field of view. And my good old Minolta AF 100-300mm F4.5-5.6 (APO D) 
fits the bill. The SONY body would add stabilization to it. Adding a 
comparable lens to a Canon or Nikon system would set me back of more 
than 1000$.

I could justify the 1000$ on a Canon lens coupled with the 7D because 
the 7D fits in my existing system. The project's budget itself justifies 
the body only, which in the case of the Alpha 850 would give me the 
option to resell it with my good Minolta glasses and accessories after 
the project ended if I did not like them for whatever reason.

What entices me is a full frame sensor - because of the increased depth 
of field control. I've recently allowed myself the luxury of exposing a 
35mm film and it feels so gd. But going full frame on Canon is 
not really an option at this moment; and even less Nikon.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Canon 7D or SONY Alpha 850 - which one would you buy?

2009-09-26 Thread D M German



 Yuval I would assume such a group to have, on average, a biased opinion and I 
 Yuval am not looking for fan answers. Actually the best feedback I got so far 
 Yuval is from Nikon users :)

Hi Yuv,

Most of use are biased... because we don't use both cameras most of the
time.

I personally like Canon lenses. They are superb, and long term
investments. My EF 85 1.8, my second Canon lens, still makes amazing
photos 15 years later (I know, I know, some people use older lenses, but
that is my point: lenses are long term investment). Of course, what
lenses you get depends on your budget. Canon does not make many cheap
great lenses (one the EF 50 1.8 mkII, which should be owned by anybody
who does not have a more expensive 50mm). Look at the innovation in the
new TS-E lenses, or the new 100 macro coming out soon.

That does not mean I like Canon per-se. They hold technology to maximize
their return.

By the way, the 1ds3 is capable of doing 7 brackets at once, I
think. 

I personally think the differences in sensors are there, but they are
usually small compared to other tangibles, such as lenses you have,
your shooting style, and how comfortable you feel with each camera.
After all, most of the photos we make could be equally be recorded with
any of the sensors in the 1.6 or full frame SLR cameras in the
market. What matters more often is you can control the camera to make
the shot before it vanishes.

[hugin-ptx] horizontal / vertical orientation - limitation

2009-09-26 Thread Yuval Levy

Hi all

I've run a bunch of randomly taken photos through panomatic. It 
identifies control points properly. however some of them are in 
landscape orientation and others in portrait. when I try to load them in 
Hugin, the following happens:

I think it has a bugfix where hugin would successfully load such a 
project, but landscape and portrait images would still be different 
'lenses'.

The solution is: don't rotate part of your photo set before 
stitching.

is there anything else we can do to make Hugin work with the same lens,
once in landscape and once in portrait?

In the panotools model a landscape and portrait image are 
fundamentally different.

[hugin-ptx] Re: tilt functions

2009-09-26 Thread Brent

From a purely empirical point of view, it appears that there is some
undesirable linkage between these parameters that makes the
minimization process get trapped into local minima and have difficulty
finding a solution in some cases.

My basis for saying that is that I've been running some test cases of
photos of a plane taken from a constant at varying angles, starting
from overhead (from a height of 1.5m) and then moving in one direction
a fixed step size (about 0.3m).  Each photo was centered on the same
point and the resulting pitch changed by about 10º per photo.   ASC
and panomatic both found lots of control points easily and I pruned
out any bad ones.   Optimizing the result turned out to be more
difficult than I expected with the relatively clean data.   I was
optimizing y,p,r,TrX,TrY,TrZ for eight of the frames and the ninth
one, the overhead one, was left fixed with 0 values for these
parameters.  What I saw was wildly different results in the output
after small changes.  For example, PToptimizer would give an RMS error
of ~15 from one starting point and then I would delete one of the
control points (there were over 400) and then end up with a completely
different result with an error of ~5.  Other small changes resulted in
results that approx. equal RMS error but very different solutions.
It seemed that there was a tradeoff occurring between the value of p
and the value of Tz.   In some solutions p would vary considerably (0
to 58) and seem about right, with Tr{X,Y,Z} varying between 0 and
0.18.  Another solution, with similar error, kept p between -7 and +7,
but Tr{X,Y,Z} varying from 0 to 3.6.

I also experimented with varying d,e (it seems that letting them vary
per-image doesn't help anything which is consistent with Pablo's
explanation),  and jointly optimizing with some of the lens parameters
(a,b,c).   In the latter case, the optimization usually fell apart
completely with RMS errors  20.

The bottom line is that although I could eventually find a solution
which seems good, I felt that the sensitivity to small changes in the
optimizer's ability to find a good solution makes it difficult to
solve the system and also makes it hard to know when the solution is
good.   It may just be that the solution space with these parameters
is quite bumpy and prone to local minima, but it may also be that the
parameter choice results in high correlations between some of the
parameters.

 optimisation of d and e.

  The advantage to the XYZ model is it uses fewer overall parameters.

  But when I try imagine manipulating images in my head using TxTyTzTs i
  don't see how Tz is any different than r.  And maybe Tz it is not
  necessary.  The advantage to the TxTyTs model is ypr can be optimized
  first to get a good placement before distorting the image by optimizing
  TxTyTs overall needing fewer control points.

 You still need Tx, Ty, Ts and d,e. This assumes that you do not need to
 touch y,p,r from a previous optimisation. However, I think y,p,r will
 try to compensate for the parallax, and they will thus be quite wrong,
 in an attempt to rescue the situation. I'm not sure that a later tilt
 estimation works satisfactory with the previously estimated y,p,r
 parameters. Maybe one can get away, if the camera hasn't been moved too far.

 My experience with the tilt model was not so good. I have prepared a
 nice testset with the aerial images posted earlier, and it works quite
 well with the XYZ mode. I'll give more details later.

[hugin-ptx] Re: Canon 7D or SONY Alpha 850 - which one would you buy?

2009-09-26 Thread RueiKe

Hi Yuv,

Definitely disappointing that camera manufacturers still have not
caught on to increased dynamic range work yet.  Even external camera
control software, which should have a lot more flexibility, doesn't
address the need (at least for Nikon).

Another aspect of bracketing that would be a factor for me would be
the ability to lock up the mirror for an entire bracket series.  Is it
really necessary to meter between brackets, especially in manual
mode?  Is there some other technical limitation for this?

  What type of bracketing capabilities do the A850D and the 7D have?

 the usual, plain, boring -2/0/+2 AEB. there are, of course, workarounds,
 but I am really fed up of camera manufacturers not understanding such a
 basic need and implementing such a simple function as

 for a= -x to +x
    shoot a picture
    increase the exposure value
    a=a+y
 next

 and let the user define x and y through the UI.

 x=2 and y=2 is what Canon does.

 x=6 and y=2 is what I'd like to do in many cases.

  heard that the Canons have only a max of 3 steps, but maybe this is
  only consumer level.

 no, it's overall. I would call it engineer's deafness.

  The Nikons support 3, 5, 7, and 9 steps at a max
  increment of 1EV, while I heard that Pentax supports 2EV increments,

 the 1EV steps is what disturbs me with Nikon. creates a lot of
 unnecessary junk. so they fixed y at 1.

 Pentax has IMO the so far best implementation, but is also limited
 (reduced x range).

  Have you considered the Nikon D3 (or D700)?  It has
  excellent high ISO noise performance and prices have really come down.

 I've looked at Nikon too, yes. I have good (as in: similar to Canon;
 and not as in: how I would expect a customer-centric business to
 operate) experience with the brand (I own a Nikonos V with plenty of
 accessories). I end up coming back to the Canon or SONY choice because I
 already have lenses and moving to Nikon, Pentax, or any other contender
 would break the budget. I am not inclined to top up at this point.

  Next question would be what is the best lens for high resolution
  panos?  I am using the Voigtlander 20mm Color Skopar almost
  exclusively now.  Very compact and great CA performance.

 indeed the question of the lens comes even before the body.

 If this was web resolution full spherical, I would not consider a full
 frame sensor; and I would consider the 7D to be an overkill (no need for
 such a great viewfinder; and 18mpx on an APS-C is overkill for the
 softness of the current generation of fisheye lenses).

 For this specific work I'll be shooting in the 100mm to 200mm range -
 pano being a synonymous with composite or mosaic more than with wide
 field of view. And my good old Minolta AF 100-300mm F4.5-5.6 (APO D)
 fits the bill. The SONY body would add stabilization to it. Adding a
 comparable lens to a Canon or Nikon system would set me back of more
 than 1000$.

 I could justify the 1000$ on a Canon lens coupled with the 7D because
 the 7D fits in my existing system. The project's budget itself justifies
 the body only, which in the case of the Alpha 850 would give me the
 option to resell it with my good Minolta glasses and accessories after
 the project ended if I did not like them for whatever reason.

 What entices me is a full frame sensor - because of the increased depth
 of field control. I've recently allowed myself the luxury of exposing a
 35mm film and it feels so gd. But going full frame on Canon is
 not really an option at this moment; and even less Nikon.

I fully agree. Although I don't quite understand the optimizer,  I believe
it does not discriminate on which parameters are more important.

ANother problem is that a bad control point might be nicely optimized
(small error)
and increase error in better points.

I would really like to be able to say: I know this control is good,
so minimize the
error of this point at the expense of others that I am not so sure about.

The last try resulted in a completely destroyed nadir, I cannot see

The reason why the nadir is white is because it has a different EV 
value to the rest of the images, presumably because exposure 
correction went wrong.  Exposure correction will go badly wrong if 
the images are not well aligned in the first place.

Looking at the project, the nadir also has wildly improbable values 
for lens distortion which seems to be because it has been given a 
different lens number and had all parameters optimised - Did hugin 
give it a different number or were you trying to do something with 
this shot?

[hugin-ptx] Re: Canon 7D or SONY Alpha 850 - which one would you buy?

2009-09-26 Thread RueiKe

Hi Daniel,

I just tried Live View on the D3.  No impact on the mirror lock up.
Too bad.  At high speed, it can induce significant camera shake.

  Another aspect of bracketing that would be a factor for me would be
  the ability to lock up the mirror for an entire bracket series.  Is it
  really necessary to meter between brackets, especially in manual
  mode?  Is there some other technical limitation for this?

 the 5dII does this when you enable live view.

 fast moving subjects. action!

So that wouldn't really be for taking panoramas I guess ^^ Also be carefull,
sometimes it's written something like 7 images per seconds * and when you
look at the * it says that you need the grip with the additional
batteries, or else you'll shoot at 5 images per seconds...
I can shoot at 3 img/s, and indeed in some cases I might want to shoot a
little bit faster, when shooting sport events...


 that said, full frame is very attractive to me, coming from the 35mm
 film background, I miss the shallow depth of field effect, e.g. in
 portraits.

I don't understand why using a FF you'll have a better shallow depth of
field effet? I have a 50mm 1.4 (but a 1.8 would already be enough) and it
gives me great portrait...honestly, I just *love* that lens, and I can
always at once tell the difference from a picture taken with it compared to
a picture taken with my 18-135 3.5-5.6 lens kit.

As for Canon VS Nikon lenses, unless you prefer a body from one or the other
brand, I feel like Nikon bodies and lenses are more expensive...I still own
a Nikon though and probably won't change because of the few lenses I already
have.
