I am anxious to try this new feature, but I have extensive experience using Photoshop and Lightroom to make panos. Panoramas and HDR | robertrose.photosAnyone know how to stitch the images in Photoshop sadly I am a filmmaker and use AE and pp but new to photoshop at moment
It really is very easy. In Photoshop go to File>Automate>Photomerge and follow your nose. After you list the files to be merged just choose the auto layout and see if you like that. You can experiment with the various settings.
In Lightroom it is even easier, but you don't get quite as many options. Select the images you want to merge, right click, and choose Photo Merge>Panorama. Again, just follow your nose.
I use the CC version and have the $10/month plan that gives me both PS and LR. Works fine.
=============================
I tried the Pano mode out today. Mine has three selections: cylindrical, hemispherical, and video. In photo mode the cylindrical setting starts a series of 6 photos and rotates between them. You can vary the angle covered; I need to experiment more with this. Hemispherical takes 11 photos, including downward shots. In video mode you can start and stop a video pan.
Check out sample cylindrical panoramas (stitched with Photoshop) at Willow Tree Lane 1 | robertrose.photos and East Grove 2 | robertrose.photos. Here is one stitched with Lightroom Escondido | robertrose.photos
BTW, if you have a Mac and use Lightroom 5.4 or later you may have a problem importing from cards that have both JPG and MP4 files on them. Try importing the JPG files from the card to a folder on your storage drive, eject the card, then start Lightroom.
