Great video, thanks. I'm an amateur photographer and I don't do panoramas a lot but when I do, I often get confronted with high contrast scenes. Being In Arizona the bright skies often pose a problem with deep shadows on mountains sides, rocks, etc. So generally I use 5-shot bracketing with my pano shots and I often get good results. I do not use any filters and I set everything to manual.

A wonderful location, Tom. Perfect for pano work with the river in front. A smile on my face about the Nodal Point remark, I get these same questions over and over again when shooting pano's and I work just like you do in the field. When I need only three images I use the TS-E lenses. Take care!

Henk, yes I don't understand why some photographers make such a big issue out of using the exact nodal point when it's not necessary. I try to maintain my methods to keep it simple.

I was one of probably many that requested this and very happy you made this video. I do not have a wide angle lens but I do have a 70-300 telephoto. So in the video you said I would have to use a rail and adjust The Nodal Point I take it. I wish to thank you for doing this and I follow your channel all the time no bull just great information thanks again I'm going to try this. Stuart

Glad it was helpful Stu! Yes I believe it was your suggestion that made us do the video. Keep them coming. Try your lens first before you go out a buy a nodal slide, I really don't think you will need it. As long as you are using a ball head and level both your tripod and camera, you should be fine.

These days I actually find myself capturing panoramas hand held by using the electronic level control in the camera (Nikon Z50). I agree that it is generally best to frame vertically so that I a lot more image available before cropping

I've found that if you have a lot of foreground then you need to set the nodal point otherwise it's not necessary

why don't you use the 3 second mirror lock up shutter delay to avoid mirror shake? You can also use self timer to avoid hand shake.

Good point Jonathan, but the shutter speed I was using didn't warrant it and for the quickness for the video.

Great video, thanks a lot for sharing! Question: Would this also work using an ultra wide angle lens? Or would the distortion of a UW lens make it harder for the software to successfully stitch the images together?
@LandscapePhotographyiQ3 жыл бұрын
It should work, but you will have to shoot more overlapped images to account for distortion so it will stitch. Thanks for watching.

I have a nodal slide and rarely use it. You need to save the settings for each lens. With zooms, for each focal length you use, too. I have a file on my iPod with the settings for the lenses I use for landscape photography. All the way from 17-40mm to 100-400mm lens. I just find getting out the nodal slide, looking up the settings, and setting the slide to the setting for the lens to not be worth the effort. It just not make enough of a difference in my panoramas, when I compare using my Acratech panoramic head and Acratech leveling base with and without the nodal slide.
@LandscapePhotographyiQ3 жыл бұрын
The Acratech is perfect for doing stitch panos. I always think why make something more difficult than it needs to be. Thanks for watching.
@ghulammurtaza4513 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the nice video Just a quick question Will it not be better to pick a single picture, do adjustments and sink all pictures before stitching. I think it will minimise the chances of rejection of the panorama
@LandscapePhotographyiQ3 жыл бұрын
Yes, I've have this question on my workshops all the time. I put it to the test and it rarely makes any difference whether you work up the images first then stitch or stitch first. Thanks for watching.

I’m kind of new to Photography, I’ve had a camera for years and never really done anything with it. Watching your videos are really getting me fired up. What does let me down is the editing side of things. I have Adobe Elements as an editing programme. This does seem to restrict what I can do. Would you recommend upgrading to lightroom?
@LandscapePhotographyiQ3 жыл бұрын
Welcome to the channel Ian, glad the videos are inspiring you to get out there with your camera. I would recommend upgrading to Lightroom as it is great for organising you images, processing RAW files and so much more. It's a very powerful program which I believe you can still buy the standalone Lightroom 6 or do the monthly subscription which also gives you Photoshop and Bridge. It might be best to do a free trial to see how you get on with it first. Good luck and keep watching!

Thx for the video. On the topic of batteries; I bought my D850 ealrier this year and I'm shocked at the seemingly poor performance of the batteries. I previously owned a D750 and the battery would last for several shoots. However, I do shoot differently now by using the Live View which understandably adds more drain to the battery. I see that you hardly use the Live View and therefore would be interested to understand how long your batteries last? I have turned off Wifi, deleted it from Snap Bridge, and has Airplane set to on. After a 4 hour wander through woodland shooting aanything from 100 to 400 shots (panos, bracketing etc) using Live View (focussing is spot on compare to eyepiece auto focus) I notice that the charge left is always less than 50% sometimes only 10% or so left. I therefore alwways carry a spare! Any advice would be helpful. Thank you
@LandscapePhotographyiQ3 жыл бұрын
You're doing the right thing by turning off the features that use battery life such as wifi, bluetooth, touchscreen. If you do tend to use Live View that will significantly drain you battery. I found that Snap Bridge is absolutely rubbish (either difficult to connect or never connects) so will never use it. Would be useful to have it work properly. The older your batteries are the quicker they will use a charge. I'm still using the same batteries that I had with my D800 and D810 and noticed the charge doesn't last as long as when they were new. After so many charge cycles they do tend to have a shorter life. I think it's time to re-new my batteries.
