  1. Hey. 🙂
    thanks for the video.. 🙂
    Just wondering what kinda PS u re using .. I am using a old one where u can totally forget using panoramas… (thats y I used PTGui until now- but my computer crashed today and it does not seem to remember my id (purchaced a year ago or so) any more)
    I m wondering If i should rather purchasing ptgui again or simply upgrade ps.
    I dont really like the idea of having ps cc … (i dont like clouds.. lol )

    Sooo back to my question.. does ps 6 have the option to make a good 360×180 panorama? (lets say i have got 20-40 pics and 5 Layers. will photoshop be able to do it?)
    cheers

  2. Hi, Thank you for the tutorial. I have only one trouble. I clicked a 360 image indoor and now when click on photomerge. It merges the image in 3 parts 2 images on top, 2 in the bottom and rest in the middle. It is happening everytime. Can you please tell me what can I do to fix this?

  3. Hi thank you for making this video it is really helpful! I was wondering f you knew how i would go about making a google street view style 360 video that i can not only pan around in but can also just to another point in the same image?

  4. Hi! Thanks for this tutorial. Really helps a lot with my Btech photography project!
    Which is the best stitching software for 360 degree pano? Is it this Pano2VR, or PTGui? Need the best quality possible. And what lens were those images shot with? Thanks a lot*
