Panoramic: Wrong sequence help.

Kevin2100 said:

Hey everyone,
I took some panoramic pictures at Ozone Falls yesterday (see my
thread "Ozone Falls") but when I came home and tried to stitch them
together to my horror I had gone in the wrong direction.
I've read somewhere on here that you can fix that. How do I fix it?
The only programs I have is the Camedia and Macromedia Fireworks.

Thanks!
Kevin

Here is Chris Bode's excellent information from an earlier post.
The answer is in there...
-----------
In the never-ending quest to get around having to use Olympus brand
SmartMedia cards to take advantage of Camedia's quick and easy panoramic
function, a fellow 'Olympian' and co-worker showed me how to modify an
EXIF format image to get Camedia to recognize it as part of a panoramic
series. I took three shots side-by-side, not in panoramic mode this last
weekend, made the modifications, and it worked like a charm. Again, it
MUST be in EXIF format.

1) Open your image in a HEX editor (I use Ultra-Edit)
2) Find line 430h - (in FX-Edit.. that's Record #4, 4th line hence 4-30)
3) Change the first seven bytes from "00 00 00 00 00 00 00" to "00 00 03
00 00 00 01". In this case, the "01" is the sequence number, so for the
second shot in the series, the seventh byte would be set to "02", and so
on.
4) Save the image (as a different filename, to be safe), and if you look
at it in Camedia, it'll display the sequence number as if it had been
taken using the Pan function.

Again, as much as I'd like to take credit for this, it goes to my
colleague (and immediate supervisor =^) Scott. Thanks, bud!

I've tried it, and it works. You should only have to change the
sequence
numbers.

Here we go again. A program called LivePix SE has included in it a
utility called PhotoVista. This is a super easy stitching program
that allows putting photos in any order. It also does not require
the use of an Olympus smartmedia card nor the Olympus panorama
mode, just pictures overlapped about 25 to 30 percent.

There are a lot of smart folks on this forum that will help you.
The only program I use is Camedia. Can you drag and drop in the
sequence you want? I don't use the Oly pano feature, I shoot a lot
of pics and later, I see a series I took as seperate pics, I just
stitch them together.
