#FREE PANORAMIC SOFTWARE INSTALL#
After much hunting high and low, I found it’s possible to install PhotoStitch for free.ġ. I didn’t have the install CD or the camera or the software any more. Reason that I’m writing about this, is that ten years after taking some Panoramas, I wanted to stitch them together.
#FREE PANORAMIC SOFTWARE UPDATE#
Update Mar-2014 – I’ve just written about alternatives to Canon Photostitch, so you might want to check them out in my article – “Panorama Stitching Software – Alternatives To Canon Photostitch” Canon PhotoStitch Panorama I’ve tested it with Photos taken on my iPhone 4s and it seems that the pictures don’t have to be taken on a Canon camera. It can do Panning (Scenery etc), Parallel Camera Movement (Documents etc) and Images scanned in sections.

PhotoStitch isn’t the most feature packed or the newest software, but it does work well, made by a well respected company. In summary there is a level of investment if you want to do quality 360 virtual panoramas and don’t underestimate the time to learn the skills to stitch and download your panorama.I’ve owned several Canon digital cameras over the years, which have all come with a “free” utility called PhotoStitch. We have accounts with all three and they work well for our clients.

#FREE PANORAMIC SOFTWARE UPGRADE#
Free $99 per year and image upgrade for $5Īll three have a free account and paid account option which offers additional features. These other alternatives act like an interface and browser on which you download your panorama. This product produces spectacular 360 virtual results but there are other products available online.

Kolor have their own version of this virtual tour software called Panotour or Panotour Pro priced at €74.25 and €399 for the Pro version. It is possible to zoom in or out on the image, and click on hot spots to move through to another room or click to read information or run a video. When you are viewing a virtual tour, it is possible to interact with the panorama moving round on all directions using your mouse or finger, from the floor to the ceiling. It is the most amazing format to show panoramas in an interactive way. The most spectacular presentation of a panorama is the virtual tour or 360° photography.

The prices of the software are comparable with one priced in euros and the other in pounds. To confuse the buyer Kolor’s basic version is AutoPano Pro and their professional version is called Autopano Giga. We bought and use the PTGui Pro version for all of our 360 aerial panoramas and ground based 360 panoramas. Kolor is a French company that is now owned by GoPro. You can also try a free version before you buy which has their name branding over the finished panorama. The two paid software packages that we have used are AutoPano Pro by Kolor and PTGui.īoth are excellent offering a standard version and a Professional version. Spherical is the geometric projection to choose to produce a stitched virtual tour. The other two are Easypano (Panoweaver) and Microsoft ICE (Image composite editor) both only work with the windows operating system.Īll of the free software is limited in their features and with the exception of Hugin did not do an acceptable job in stitching our images. The best is Hugin, which works with both Mac and Windows operating systems. There are three free panorama software packages that we have looked at. This allows for a good overlay of the images, so the stitching points on the overlapping area can be found and pinpointed. The photos are taken in 3 rows of 8 images and two final vertical / ground images each at 90 degrees to the previous image.

We typically take 26 photos per aerial panorama or ground based panorama. You first need 360 panoramic software to stitch your images.
