Hi all, I hope I didn't give anyone the wrong idea. I almost always shoot bracketed sets with a tripod. As such, fusion before blending makes sense for me, too. However, I have been burned before by not considering how others shoot, so I was just presenting a case when one would possibly want t

I agree with Yuval here. I'm using Smartblend instead of Enblend most of the time, and as far as I'm aware, Smartblend cannot handle cropped TIFFs automatically. Well, it accepts x and y offsets for each input image on the command line, but Hugin does not supply those to the blending program, so I

Hi Gerry, I can see the logic of 'post processing' fusion for hand held images but that assumes each exposure set is aligned in itself and then the exposures are aligned which I don't think the programs do. Don't they align one image set and then apply the same settings to each exposure set? I

I can reproduce your issue. When I feed jpg's or png's into align_image_stack I get correct HDR's. If I feed 8bit or 16bit tiff's into align_image_stack I get HDR's which can only be opened in Hugin and FDRTools. I also tried with an 8months old align_imagestack and it has the same issue.

Please see here: http://gallery.me.com/jannesbolten#100166 for the results of row-by-row blending. (choose slideshow for highest resolution view.) Only one row seems to offend Enblend. The only difference between this row and the others, is that it has a single picture that is connected to the row

Enblend shows the same weird patters in the first row of clouds of my pano. I just noticed while Enblend is working on the top row of my panorama (10 images, all clouds) that it's "optimizing for 59 distinct seams". It should be optimizing for only 9 seams between 10 images, no? --~--~-~--

Hi Dave, I also fuse first (but maybe I'm a bit biased being the writer of the ImageFuser tool). The reason I do this is that Hugin has sometimes difficulties in finding CP's between the very dark and light images in such bracketed sets. It is sometimes also hard to do that by hand. In that case p
