#NIKON PANORAMA MAKER 6 SOFTWARE#
When told to stitch, the software works quickly (making use of any graphics cards present) and will generally come up with a very creditable result. Most of the time the automatic analysis will get it right, but if you are doing something a little more ambitious that might confuse the auto options, it is not too much effort to go an extra click and select the type yourself. Panorama Maker will analyse the selected shots and will make a good guess at what order they should come in and whether they should be arranged horizontally, vertically or in a matrix. If like me, you are a little 'trigger happy' you can find that it picks up more photos than actually belong together, but that is no great worry because you can un-check the box for auto select and pick the shots yourself. It groups photos by looking at the timestamps in EXIF to group shots taken within 40 seconds of each other.
If you click on one of the thumbnails displayed once you open it up, it will automatically select others that it thinks belong in the same series. Panorama Maker is quite capable of making sensible guesses at what pictures it should be working with and what it should be doing with them. However, it is often when you step just outside the recommendations (and thereby make things a little more challenging for stitching software), that you end up with an image that is a little more interesting. The package gives some very sensible advice for getting good panoramas locking exposure, ensuring reasonable overlap, keeping things level, using a tripod etc. One of the great things about Panorama Maker is the combination of ease of use and the ability to manually 'tweak' panoramas where required. Panorama Maker 6 is very recognisable from that earlier version, but it has grown up a bit and become a lot more capable.
#NIKON PANORAMA MAKER 6 PC#
For a long time it was a much-used application, but I ended up losing it on one of many PC re-installations. It came as part of a bundle with a Nikon Coolpix 3200 P&S. I first used an earlier version of Panorama Maker many years ago (pre-Dyxum).
