Hi, I updated some minor parts of the both osx wiki's yesteray (by accident in parallel with your mail). I still have not added GLEW to the XCode OSX wiki because I needed to use a very weird approach to make (not build) it universal. I had to grab the binary ppc library from the GLEW website, buil

I think this points to a need for a flexible, general image-registration package. I've been trying to get similar work done with Hugin and run into many strange/frustrating problems which most likely stem from Hugin's design as a panorama creation package. If you have any luck, Andrew, please writ

I tried align_image_stack to make short stop-motion video. One problem I noticed was that whole image was slowly rotating. Probably align_image_stack aligns consecutive images. It would be nice to have option to compare all images to first one with the goal of countering orientation drift with ti

With my 40D (either way, crop factor is the same, 1.6) I generally shoot 360s with 17 shots. 8 at 0 degrees, 4 at 45 degrees down and 4 at 45 degrees up. Then a hand held nadir if desired. Its more than really needed, but gives more overlap to help line things up. On Nov 12, 2:44 pm, "John McA

Hi, I see what you mean. And what I'm now saying is basically the same you say but I would not call it a "disable gui" option, but a "full screen" option. Something like "Alt-F11" or "Command-F11 (Apple-F11)" on a Mac. This "full screen" window only shows the images, CP's and controls on the righ

i'm a nikon user, so take this with a grain of salt, but i'd use the 10-22mm il, it gets very postive comments from what i can tell. i think 10mm on the D30 will require 6 or 7 in portrait plus a zenith image. should be a great combo. i like my nodal ninja 5. -- michael On Tue, Nov 11, 200

Hi, Yes, this is right. celeste will remove "faulty" control points from clouds and so on. Please note that it will not remove CP's from waving grass or leaves or branches and so on (that's another gsoc project?). You can easily check celeste's abilities (or short comings): - Open a series of ima

Harry, thanks again for your work. Just one question: what is precisely the purpose of Celeste? Reading around I found that it should remove control points in the sky part of the pictures, since these are the CPs most likely to be "wrong". Is this right? On Nov 11, 9:34 pm, "Harry van der Wolf" <
