Let me ask, are you able to do what you are trying to do if you do a horizontal shift and instead of diagonal tilts just do up/down right/left tilts?

Tilt just up/down right/left is no problem in horizontal stitch. The issue is only with diagonal tilt.

And you’ve successfully stitched them together?

May I ask if you have tried the problem with the diagonal tilt for panorama stitch out in practice on your camera? Not that I at all mind trying out any of your suggestions, it is interesting, but personally I actually only really realized the limitation when trying it out in practice on my little controlled set up - going systematically through the 4 possible diagonal tilt directions.

I have been physically making the movements on my camera and taking the photos. I haven’t tried to focus stack them together.

let me ask if the issue is that there are hard stops to the tilt rotation mechanism? If the tilt rotation mechanism freely rotated 360 degrees would you still have this issue?
