The other day I ran my Sydney City Day Course and I was showing how to do panoramic stitches on dusk and this was one of them. This 6:1 ratio panoramic is made up of a whopping 25 portrait shot images on the 5D Mk II and when cropped and flattened weighs in at 1 Gig.
Once again the detail is amazing as seen in the other cropped pics of this shot.
Click to enlarge any of the images.
wow very cool, detail is amazing how big could you blow this image up with out loosing detail??
oh what f-stop n lens did you use?
Mitch not sure how big but it would be a long sucker that’s for sure. Shot on the 70-200mm f2.8 at 98mm. f stop was f13 @ 1/4 sec. Stitched in CS3.
ah ok awesome…. i dont know if you have heard about it but do u believe in “lens refraction”?…. i do iv got crop sensor, so i dont shoot anything over f11 i find that the image get a little soft if i shoot f16/f22 ect..??
That is amazing, I love the detail. Where were you when you took the shots?
Thanks Michelle it is taken from the Overseas terminal.
Mitch dont worry about all that stuff you read about in magazines. I always shoot f11 and over. How else will you get the depth of field you need in your shots. Never had a problem yet.
ah ok.. well apparently if you shoot fx format the most you can go up to is f16, and for the smaller sensors its f8 so yeah, i have seen some vids on youtube and they say the lens is completely useless if you go over them f-stops, i think thats taking it abit far … hmm anyways
cheers
