In general, it probably is best to calibrate your specific lens in Hugin, particularly if it's one you use a lot for panorama work. Of course, getting your clients to do that may be another matter entirely. On April 2, 2020 12:20:41 AM HST, Klaus Foehl wrote: >You need not be so pessimistic. Ty

You need not be so pessimistic. Typical alignment deviations are in the 3 to 5 pixels ballpark at the edge, and can go up to 15 pixels in the corner for a particular "bad" lens (meaning the hugin abc model cannot cope with that lens), all using the barrel distortion parameter b. Now do the math

Again, that's what I ended up doing (cf my 3rd post) But in fact it's not even the best existing solution for me. Right now the quickest and easiest solution is to re-render the corrected panorama from Blender. However, it adds a pipe in my pipeline. Which means if I realize I have to modify t

Sorry, maybe my phrasing was misleading. I didn't mean the panorama should scale linearly on the reprojection. What I meant is that, yes, each photo has to be distorted, but in such a way that the overlapping pixels between 2 photos don't drift apart, resulting in the same effect as my animated

Ok. It's fine if it doesn't get that precise. I can work with around 1 degree if the software doesn't allow for less. The point is that having a scaling feature would allow me to fine-tune the scale based on what I know. Since I superimpose my panorama to imported terrain and map data in Blende

2020-03-30 Thread Klaus Foehl
As you are talking sub-degree precision, there is an inherent limitation in the hugin lens model or abc parametrisation. From the Brown-Conradi model, a mathematically sound distortion description, hugin implements only one of the non-trivial parameters, which is parameter b. Parameters a and

Unless I'm missing some geometrical effect, it doesn't seem to me that you would have to re-optimize it given that the transformation should precisely preserve the panorama's sewing just like in the animation above, so as I understand it, control point distances should only change proportionally
