Perfect Panos - A lightweight simple to use solution to solve parallax

Описание к видео Perfect Panos - A lightweight simple to use solution to solve parallax

This is a sort of part two to a recent video that I posted on how to create panoramic images in Capture One software. As one commenter pointed out though, I didn't discuss finding the optical center of a lens. The original video is here:    • Stitching Panos with Capture One (and...  

This short video looks at how to overcome the issue of parallax in photographing panoramas with more complex shapes inside them. In particular I use a leveling base on my tripod (built in to the Leofoto CEX range), and a small nodal rail - also from Leofoto - the NR-200. With this simple and light setup I can shoot perfect panoramas that don't struggle with parallex.

Please note that this technique is specifically for single-row panoramas. If you want to shoot multi-row panoramas a gimbal head is needed to get the actual nodal point (x and y axis) of the lens itself. I very rarely shoot multi-row panoramas (unless I have to create a VR or 360 degree image which is a different thing entirely). As such, finding the optical center along one axis through the use of a rail clamp is more than sufficient for single row panoramas.
