Panoramic photography is made by taking a series of overlapping shots and using
digital cameras and special panoramic software to join and blend them together
creating panoramic photos seamlessly. You can shoot
anything from high-res non-distorted wide-angle shots to full 360 degree
wraparounds.
While there is no formal division between "wide-angle"
and "panoramic" photography, "wide angle" normally refers to a type of lens, but this lens type does not necessarily
image a panorama. A panoramic camera uses an image made with a digital camera
and a panoramic camera lens, usually an ultra wide angle
fisheye camera lens covering the normal film frame of 1:1.33 is not
automatically considered to be a panoramaand a special panoramic head
that fits on the tripod. An image showing a field of view approximating, or greater than, that of
the human eye - about 160° by 75° - may be termed panoramic. This generally means that an image with an aspect ratio
of 2:1 or larger, the image being at least twice as wide as its height. The resulting images take the form of a wide
strip. Some panoramic images have aspect ratios of 4:1 and sometimes 10:1, covering fields of view of up to 360 degrees.
Both the aspect ratio and coverage of field are important factors in defining a true panoramic image
Photographers
started vrtual tour panoramas for use in real
estate, where it allows anyone on the World Wide Web
to thoroughly inspect a property. You can purchase
the tools similar to the ones we use to create your
own virtual tours.
Click a Photo below for virtual
tours shot with this lens. These are full computer screen
Java based tours and may take some computers a little time to load.
