Two more 330HS panoramics
1

El Morro fortress San Juan PR, Canon 330 HS pano

St Maarten, Canon 330 HS pano

Seven image pano of the El Morro fortress in San Juan Porto Rico and five image pano of cruise ships at St Maarten. The ships images have some of the clouds blown out and were taken into the Sun, I shielded the lens with my left hand. Both panos were hand held.

These were taken last month along with my previous pano thread:

I am amazed at the IQ of this little camera that costs a little over $100 when it comes on sale.

I like #2 the best and wouldn't worry too much about the clouds IMO. I find the contrast between the ships on the left and the ships on the right more interesting along with the size of those things.

Very impressive, I have bright clouds like that where I live, they are difficult and why I use my settings with Icontrast, its expanded DR helps with extremes like that. But having said that, the clouds don't distract at all, they almost emphasise or demonstrate the brilliant location. Both good but the second is the best for me also.

I agree that the performance for price is excellent.

These are both very nice and most impressive. I think that the performance from this camera is excellent; the IQ matches or surpasses the IQ from a number of cameras costing a lot more! The detail you've captured with it is amazing, especially the sharpness and detail of the people in the fort. Thanks for sharing these.

Great pictures, what software do you use to stitch the pictures together. I need to learn how to do panorama with my 330.

Cheers

Steve.

In-camera?  If not, try Microsoft ICE.

Now that I have Photoshop CS6 I use it for stitching panoramas. Previously I used the free program Autostitch with about the same results.

I would like to thank everyone for their kind comments.

The panos that I've uploaded on this post were resampled down to 1080 pixels high. The original San Juan pano is 3367 pixels high. Here's a crop from the full size pano.
