I really don't see the benefit of using a TS lens here. Focus wise there's not much an improvement and maybe it's even a step back. The proper method would be...
... I'd use circular fisheye as input projection and allow for all lens distortions to optimize. To get further help you should provide at least two...
Although it might only be useful in specific situations I think this has interesting potential Peter, thanks for sharing it. Focus stacking is a real pain to...

Panini-Video is a fast video transcoder that converts fish-eye and super-wide angle material to more natural looking Panini perspective. De-fish done right;...
Hugin actually assumes all input images are patches of a sphere seen from the inside (the panosphere, or sphere of vision) so should naturally do well at your...
Hi Guys. There is not much information upon how to convert 360 panorama,s to video. Well at least i could only find pano2movie -- http://www.pano2movie.com/ ...
My 2 cents is that neither Yahoo, nor FB, nor Google Groups, nor Google+, is an ideal way for a bunch of tekkies to communicate, but all are useful and should...
I have used pano2movie on a couple of projects and for a simple pan around it works well but becomes difficult if you want a precision move. to do that you...
If any of you have been on the fence about buying the Rokinon 8mm f/3.5 fisheye, B&H has it on sale for $70 off (now $229). That's almost 25%, so it would be a...
Hi Guys Thanks for all the input and feedback Andrew the software you suggested the you actually use a stitched panorama image and converted it to a video or...
This was 4-5 years ago Ian and the other issue I had was I could not pan beyond the image boundary, the place where the right and left edge of the pano meet. I...
Hi Ian. I find your program difficult i don't even know how to import a image to your program to convert to video. Do you have any how to forums ? Johann...
... At the moment it only takes QTVR panoramas, an update to take equirectangular images directly is in the works but is strictly a 'spare time' project. Ian...
... I don't think this would help. One element of the "lens" is the eye itself, which you can't calibrate. Furthermore there most likely is non-symmetric...
Hello, ever had trouble to find correct heading for your panorama? If it is shot outdoor the sun might give you an exact value. One or the other might know of...
Agree. After Effects + Horizon is the way to go. I have a tutorial on exactly that workflow in my new book, specifically tailored for photographers without...
Element 3d for After Effects https://www.videocopilot.net/products/element/ can be used too. You can load equi 360s directly as skyboxes and animate the camera...

True that, Elements3D is awesome. In fact, it's almost too powerful for simply spinning a panorama… In the latest AE6 you can also assign an equirectangular...
