Ok, perfect for a panorama, but this was not a panorama. Don't know exactly what he tried to do, but looked like he tried something like a time lapse or enfusion/HDR, for which rotating using the NPP would be useless, as in fact any rotation :) so any tripod would solve and also make alignment unn

You definitely should use a tripod to reduce parallax but more importantly you should understand the "entrance pupil" for your lens. This is the point in the lens that you should be rotating about so there is no parallax. Do some research on the web to better understand this requirement. On 2

You should always use a tripod to avoid parallax errors (ghosting). Even then, it will sometimes shift slightly after adjusting it so images are sometimes misaligned by one or a few pixels. You can often get away with shifting (translating) them in Photoshop or similar but Hugin will usually do
