gear List / webinars / software: HOW TO SHOOT A PANORAMA

This video was shot by my friend Lisa Bettany, who helped design my favorte phone app, Camera Plus, while we were at the Aperture/Nature Photography Workshop in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I was teaching the students hwo to capture panos at Oxbow Bend one morning while Lisa made a video of it. 

A review of Scott’s tips for taking a panoramic: 

Use a solid & level tripod 

Check to make sure your entire shot is level and all your subject is in your frame. 

Try and use a pano head if possibleand also a nodal plate 

Shoot on Manual so that all your settings stay constant 

Use a cable release 

Overlap each shot from 20-50% 

Stitch photos in post
