Multi-row Panorama Mode of Capsule360

Panoramic Photography is capturing images on a wider format, so as to include much more than what eyes can see naturally from a point. 

To capture a panoramic image, a larger width-height ratio is needed. Thus you will achieve an unobstructed, wide outlook.

Panoramic Photography helps us to capture images that are in very wide angles so that it includes more than our eye’s sight range. 

With its rotating property, Capsule360 enables us to get  360 degree images. Via a photo editing software you can combine all of the images together and attach them to each other to create a panoramic image.

Angle of view : The term “angle of view” represents the angular extent of the given location that is imaged by the camera.

If you are aiming to take a multi-panorama shot, you should adjust the “angle of view” values given below separately.

Horizontal degree ( This mode should be selected if you are going to shoot with the camera in landscape mode. )

Vertical degree ( This mode should be selected if you are going to shoot with the camera in portrait mode. )

Overlap : Determines how similar will be the photos’s areas which will be stitch through the whole panorama shot. Overlap value represents the defined area of right-side of the first shot that will be stitch with the defined area of left-side of the second shots.

Exposure : This value defines the exposure value for each photo. You can set a custom exposure up to 100 hours in milliseconds.

Frame Delay: The time that has passed from the time when the camera finishes the exposure, to the time when the camera processes the photographs and shows it to you is called “frame delay”.

 

 

Camera Sensor : Enter the your camera`s sensor type.

 

Should be chosen if the camera will be used vertically.

Should be chosen if the camera will be used vertically.

Focal Length: The zoom value that is expected from the camera to perform in must be set.

 

 

 

First, you need to set the angle of view. You need to set it for both horizontal and vertical. Let’s say you want to cover 180 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically, set it to 180 and 90.

You can control the exposure value using Capsule360 too, for that you need to set your camera on bulb mode. Now set frame delay, it’s a time gap between each shot so your camera gets enough time to save the image. 

Now you need to set overlapping percentage, set it to 35% (Overlap value depends on the nature of the shot you want to take.). Capsule360 will automatically take overlapping images according to this parameter.

You also need to enter whether you have a full-frame camera or crop sensor and you placed the camera on Capsule360 vertically or horizontally.

Once you set all the parameters, tap on start and I’ll start taking required pictures. In the case of a multi-row panorama, you need to use two Capsule360, one for pan and one for tilt.
