Please help! Pro90IS CD is beyond repair, need photo stitch

Doughnutboy-1 · Apr 5, 2002

My little boy got hold of the CD sometime ago and had the dog carrying it thru the house!

I recently had to re-install windows and now have nowhere to get the photo-stitch software. I've looked on the Canon website(s) for support and gotten the USB drivers etc but desperately need the photo-stitch software, can anybody help? Please?

i'd find better software. the canon panorama stinks. i use panavue. it's not freeware, and it can still use a little work. but it's far better then the stitcher they included. the one they have simply glues the photo's ontop of each other. anyone can do that. the other better programs will distort the picture so it looks proper in the stitched panorama.

That site has most of the s/w except its missing the (something) lead libraries which is not Canon S/w but a third party graphics library and they probably can't put on the site for licensing reason.

I was able to download and update all my s/w but I had to take the missing files from my original disks. Also, the latest s/w seems more better and stable than the original one I got w/ my G1

Hi Dave

Look in your email for a message from me about this. Just incase you do not check your email a lot during the day and you are looking at the posts to this.....

I respectfully disagree. I like to make panoramas and I use the PhotoStitch software included with my G2 to make them. I've made a whole bunch of great panoramas with PhotoStitch, and they all look proper - no evident seams, good overlap, etc. I've had a couple not work out entirely, but then again, I tried to do them without a tripod, so that was my fault, not the software's.

Agree absolutely Luke. I find Photstitch quick and easy and it works. Sure, in a difficult situation it's going to hiccup but Panavue takes some learning from what I've seen and while terrific, for the casual user the Canon software does OK.

Thanks everyone for the help!

Photostitch is now installed and living on the Brant computer once again.

... and I tried Panavue once a long time ago, didn't like it much (complex for my needs)... and I'm cheap too, so pstitch it is.

Thanks again.

comparing it to a real program, the one that canon comes with (maybe your's is a different version), there's a huge difference. i took a shot 3 pictures, of a large thing, with a ladder. canon made it buldge in the middle, and the ladder didn't connect right in the middle. the other software, perfectly smooth, one nice big picture.

not to mention that stupid square function never works. even the example they give doesn't line up right.
