This is an enormous stitch. I don't remember how many photos it is composed of, but think it is over 100. That is because it is also focus stacked, so every slice of the stitch has about 5-8 images in the stack. putting it together was an enormous chore. It is the second image from my series on diners, designed to be posters. Shot with a Phase 1 XF and an IQ3-100 back. The lens is an SK 120MM macro. Later, I started using a 28mm, but for the first shots, I wasn't intending to shoot subjects like this and happened to have that lens on the camera.
While I appreciate the work of a pano so big... I am curious as to way go through all that trouble? How big do you expect to print it? It seems like incredible overkill
I've done bigger ones. I come to photography from painting, where I frequently painted four by six foot canvasses. Some people need huge sizes to cover their walls. I wanted to have the flexibility to do that: www.paqart.com
Wow that is pretty impressive to have something so big. When you do a pano with so many shots are you using on eof those rails or pano systems? Does it matter with so many shots?
No rails. I might want to get some one of these days because there is a lot of waste the way I do it. My ideal size is about 25,000 pixels wide, though some go up to about 60,000.
