Pano Rama Mania

Pano of Harvard Yard

We are severely into Pano. It’s an amazing free (woops, $2.99) app for the iPhone that lets you take panoramic shots — first by helping you line up one shot after another, and second by stitching them together remarkably well. The above is the first of two shot at Harvard’s Old Yard. I made small mistakes on both, but so what. They’re a load of fun, and not bad, considering.

Check these out.

Is it free? It shows up as $2.99 (very reasonable) in my App Store.

My point and shoot had a feature like that too, except it came free with the camera. Cool idea, but I won’t be buying it.

My little Canon has that too. The problem: stitching is up to you. Go into Photoshop or the Gimp or whatever. Labor-intensive.

My Canons have it as well. They also have an app that does all the stitching for you, perfectly, pretty much every time. Select the photos and click a couple of buttons, that’s it.
