I have created a 360 image of a bathroom to show the end result of my updated workflow. This image will be used for creating VR tours and uploading to Google Street View. I then output the max image size of 14,000 x 7,000 JPG. Next I bring it into Photoshop to fix any stitching errors and check the colors. From there I import the HDR images into PTGui Pro where I stitch and create the high res image that is 17,200 x 8,600 TIF at about 1.2 gigs. Next I use the batch mode in Aurora HDR 2019 to combine all the bracketed images into HDR images. The first step is organization, and I find using Lightroom to visually see all the images works best for me. This involves four different programs: Adobe Lightroom, Aurora HDR 2019, PTGui Pro, and Adobe Photoshop.
On the software side of things my workflow steps are: organize, create HDR, stitch, and fix errors. Now that my hardware is all sorted I turned my attention to the processing of the images. This is a wonderfully sharp lens over the whole frame. This lens takes advantage of the full frame sensor, giving me a 42 megapixel image. So I updated to the Samyang 12mm Full Frame Fisheye. You could always overcome this by shooting more images. I also always found the 8mm Fisheye to be a little soft around the edges.
(example 1) This was good, but shooting in APS-C mode meant I was still shooting at 18 megapixels and not using the full sensor. Shooting with the A99II in APS-C mode allowed the 8mm Fisheye to fill the frame. I updated the camera a little while ago to the Sony A99II, a full frame 42 megapixel camera. The A77v is a crop sensor (APS-C) 24 megapixel camera. I have been using the combo of Sony A77v and Sigma 8mm Circular Fisheye lens for what seems like forever.
AURORA HDR 2018 BATCH PROCESSING PROBLEMS UPDATE
The next update was camera and lens choice. The other advantage to the controller is that presets give you setting changes with just one push of a button. This last one is a biggie as you can bump the tripod – when it moves you will have to start over.
AURORA HDR 2018 BATCH PROCESSING PROBLEMS MANUAL
This allows me to do several things: first dial in any angle from 1 to 359 without the fiddling of a manual rotator, shoot remotely, and shoot and rotate the camera without having to touch the camera. The Mecha C1 controller is an automatic rotator. The solution was to add the Mecha C1 controler to the bottom of my Nodal Ninja 6 (NN6) panohead, replacing the manual click rotator. How can I make this faster and repeatable? The first thing I looked at was shooting. With that in mind, I recently looked at my workflow for both shooting and editing 360 HDR photos. As a 360 photography professional, it’s always important to find new ways to improve both the quality and efficiency of my work.
