Hi folks,
I am working on an architecture project to produce large format indoor panoramas (final size >= 3meters x 1 meter). I am using nodal point technology with the Giga Pan Pro head and focus stacking, HDR and stiching afterwards. To avoid as much distortion as possible right in the single frames I use 70 - 200mm whenever possible. This works pretty well except for distortions in the areas of the cealing. This can be corrected in Photoshop, but it's not always very easy and sometimes extremely time consuming for the subjects I am photographing.
I am wondering whether these distortions can be totally avoided when using a tilt-shift lens. My idea is, to newly correct the perspective distortion with the tilt shift lens for every single row of the panorama. Has anybody experience in such a workflow? On the other hand my expection is, that part of the distortion is caused by the rotation around the nodal point and cannot be avoided in camera even when using a tilt shift lens.
Kind regards
Thomas
