Stitching software

Archived from groups: rec.photo.digital (More info?)

Does anyone know of any good software that I can use to make some panoramic
images of some pics I have taken. It must be relatively easy to use and I'm
willing to pay for it if it's good.

I use PTGUI for my panoramas.

Dunno how it stacks up, but that's the one I've been using too.

Seems to work...

Autostitch does an amazing job, but you need to be aware of a couple of
things:
* It uses a spherical projection not a cylindrical one, and so your
straight lines come out slightly curved
* No manual intervention is possible - the process is entirely
automated - so there's no opportunity to give it hints about the points
to match up.

That said, it gets it right most of the time and the blending is pretty
impressive. Have a look here for some examples of how it goes wrong,
and what it does when it goes right:
