from the information you give I suspect that you suffer from a typical 
problem that beginners have: a large number of tutorials of which a 
certain number is completely outdated (our fault); and the urge to take 
all steps at once. Take your time and start with easier panoramas than 
one full spherical from a room.


Enblend was mentioned a few times in this thread. From having a look at 
your image I suspect you changed the blender to "internal" (verdandi), 
likely with the new "soft" option. Right?


Yes, we need more information from you:

About your camera / lens setup; do you use a pano head and tripod; have 
you understood and followed the steps to find the no parallax point 
(NPP) of your lens


What was your workflow:
- You seem to use JPGs, do you know about (is your camera capable of) 
shooting and working with RAW images? Your images btw suffer from color 
fringes which can be corrected during the whole process.
- Your file name ends with fused which tells me that you just clicked on 
some output option in the stitcher tab. Please describe your steps in 
Hugin, your computer platform, which version of Hugin do you use.

- Which user mode do you use (standard, advanced, expert)?

Did you already have a look at the tutorials section of the panotools 
wiki at ? It has some nice articles about 
first steps and basic concepts. You can also use it as a glossary for 
all the special terms used for this technique.


I always recommend not to start with a full spherical panorama taken in 
a room with lots of close features and complicated patterns at the floor 
and at the ceiling. Better go outside and look for a spot with some 
buildings around you. Take one complete horizontal row of images, all 
overlapping about 30% and covering the complete 360 degrees from left to 
right. This set of photos can be used to calibrate your lens (have a 
look at the wiki or use Hugins integrated help: search for "lens 
correction model" -> scroll down to "Determine lens correction"), check 
the quality of your panohead setup regarding the correct NPP, make 
yourself familiar with the concept of (look up ->) "vertical control 
points" (to align your panorama no matter if the tripod is set up in an 
exactly vertical position).


And please scale down panoramas you send to the list as some list 
members may use slow internet connections or check their mails on a 
mobile device. Better upload your image(s) to some online service and 
just send us the link.


You could send us your project file though (the one ending with .pto).

Cheers,
Carl

As Greg I also think I have seen this before. Did you use any mask? Did you
change the blender or any of its parameter?

Maybe you can also try to change the blender, like using multiblend.

Hmm, interesting.  I've seen this kind of effect before, but I forget
why.  Could it be that you have used different exposures for each
image?  It could be that enblend is having difficulties adjusting the
exposure.

The other thing you could try would be a few more overlaps.

That will give you the relationship between the entrance pupil (z
axis), but not the x and y axes.

> check out the sample I posted.

What I see there are:

- It looks like a 3 row pano.

- The middle row seems OK.  This suggests that your z axis adjustment
  is good enough.

- The black areas are where you have no coverage at all.  So though
  your coverage may overlap in the middle, it's not overlapping in the
  corners.

- The bottom row has serious alignment issues.  That suggests to me
  that your lens is offset either from the x axis (axis of the main
  rotator), or (more likely) from the y axis (axis of the horizontal
  rotator).  It seems that MCE doesn't get too worried about these
  things, but the Hugin control point detectors don't want to know.
  You could add control points manually, but it would be better to
  address the cause.  Take a look specifically at
  http://www.johnhpanos.com/epcalib.htm (mentioned above) just before
  section 4.

I suspect that you'll get considerably better results next time
round.  If you don't, post the images (original size, with EXIF data)
somewhere and I'm sure a number of us will take a look.

Difficult to know why you are having problems with Hugin on this project.
We might be able to give you some pointers if we had access to the project.
Is it possible for you to make the images available via Dropbox or similar

There are not many projects that can't be stitched with Hugin, if driven

The pano head I feel is 90% calibrated.  I did do a quick calibration for 
parallax, but I don't think its perfect.

At this point I'm sticking with the kit lens (18-55mm) and shooting at 18mm 
with it.  I found a guide specific for that lens that seems to work.

I will take more time to dial in the nodal ninja with the lens.  when the 
pano head came in I rushed a bit out of excitement.

check out the sample I posted.

Is your panorama head correctly calibrated for both vertical and
horizontal rotation? See: http://www.johnhpanos.com/epcalib.htm
Note that a zoom lens must be calibrated separately for each focal
length setting you intend to use.

Is there sufficient overlap between rows? Is there enough image details
in the overlap area, not just blank sky?

A couple of suggestions, not knowing the real nature of your images these  
may or may not be of any help.

Have you looked at the cpfind options, e.g --fullscale?
Also, which version of cpfind? In File -> Preferences -> Control Point  
Detectors you will have "Hugin's CPFind (Default)" but also "CPFind  
(multirow/stacked)" which may be helpful to your particular case.
If none of this helps, and you don't get a good solution from others, it  
may be helpful of you could provide a few of your images (just enough to  
show the problem) via Dropbox or similar, so we can get a better idea of  
what is going wrong.

[hugin-ptx] New to Hugin, I need Workflow Help

2016-07-31 Thread Andy S
I've been creating Panos and 360 spherical's with for some time using my 
phone and Google Street view.  I decided to to take it up a notch and 
utilize my dusty DSLR to create the images instead.

Here is my gear:

   - Canon T3i
   - Optics: 18-55mm, 75-300mm & 50mm Macro lenses
   - Nodal Ninja 4 w/ RD16 rotator
   - Manfrotto 190XB Tripod
   - Canon Remote Shutter controller

I decided to give Hugin a shot because I've been reading its pretty 
powerful and its free.


What I've done so far:



   - I've taken a series of stacked pictures using the 18-55 lens indoor 
   and outdoor.
   - The pictures have 20-30% overlap
   - I've imported them into the latest version Hugin (Windows Vista 64bit)
   - Hugin detects the pics and adjust exposure

Here is where I'm having trouble:


I can only get Hugin to align & stitch my horizontal Pano shots.  As soon 
as I introduce my 45 degree spherical shots it struggles to align them or 
find control points.


Here is what I've tried:



   1. Manually creating control points between the stacked sets
   2. Stitching 1 row at a time
   3. Feature matching and optimization 
   4. Reading user guide and watching online tutorials
   5. Joining Google forum

Can someone point me to a good online resource or share some tips on how to 
make this work?  The more I look into Hugin, the more options and features 
I find and I have a hard time deciphering which to pick.  Also, not sure if 
I need to do something special in Hugin because of the lens type I'm 
using.  I know most use fisheye, but I don't own one yet.  I don't mind 
doing the extra work and learning more about this.


Thanks,

[hugin-ptx] New to Hugin

Hi.
I'm used to stitching with both PTMac and PTGui, but out of interest I
decided to give Hugin a try. Downloaded v0.7.0 and it all looks very
intuitative. I loaded some images taken with a 10.5 fisheye on a Nikon
D2X which I successfully stitched in PTGui, just as a test.
No joy at all!
In 'Assistant' tab I enter 'Full frame fisheye' and 10.5 focal length
and 1.5 multiplier.
Press 'Align' and it runs through the control point selection process
and comes up with a mess. (132 CPs with "very bad fit Optimizer might
have failed")
It also decides to change the lens to 10.25
Fallen at the first hurdle it seems. I'll stick to the software I know
but if anyone can get me started it would be good to know. Its just
annoying!
Thanks,

Marcus
