360 photo with spark

[sebip]

My first 360 4x21 pano +2x9 pano in ptgui

 

[CZA]

Well that's amazing....

 

[faz faz]

How did you do that

 

[DPK]

Hi that's fantastic! Is it done through one of its modes?
Thanks

 

[sebip]

I use 4 panos of 21 photos (180 degree) and 2 pano of 9 photos ( camera pointed to ground), all photos stitched with ptgui

 

[webvan]

Very nice, so about 90d for each 180?
Then you feed all the individual pics to PTGui?

 

[THE WOMBLE]

How do I view the pics?

Just one. 11:26 flight time, take off at 96% landing at 16%

Well done!

That looks incredible!

By chance, I see that Skypixel now has a 360 photo hosting, have you tried that?

 

[sebip]

on skypixel : "You must upload photos in Jpg or Png format, size<20 Mb"
not worth it
My file is around 100 Mb

 

[sebip]

I give it a try at lower resolution on skypixel

I do 360 degree panos by taking 3 panos of 21 photos (roughly 120 degrees apart). 4 panos are over kill. Thanks for the hint how to take the two nadir panos (90 or 180 degrees apart?).

One more hint: the Spark fixes exposure for each pano, but not in between. Exposure can be equalized by good pano software, different exposures are ok. But you need to MANUALLY fix the white balance if you want to combine several panos.

Last hint: 91 photos take a lot of time! I therefore use Sport mode to fly straight to the mission point (if far away). And ignore the occasional RTH warning during the last few images ...

This is excellent work. I would hope to know about how you did this?
