The main thing is that the photos have to have a certain amount of overlap. Some cameras, like the Nikon Coolpix, has a feature called PANORAMA ASSIST. What that does is it takes the right half of the previous shot and then you can use it to superimpose it over you current shot. Or yo could just use some sort of feature in the landscape to do this.How does one go about taking/making a panoramic photo?
Thanks,

I debated about using a tripod. I just pan the camera along roughly the same axis. If you have good software and used a landscape feature then it's not a problem. I did a pan shot of the Colusuem in Rome and the Louvre in Paris. I will try to upload it later.
It's not neccesary to have a "true panoramic camera. As long has you're shooting along the same axis, more or less and the exposures are approximately the same, then the software can do it for you. Isn't technology wonderful?I use my panoramic camera. :mrgreen:
Ok, ok, enough of the wise cracks.
I really do use my panoramic camera though.
I addition to whats mentioned above, a tripod will help too. The steadier the shot is and the easier / better the pic will come out with software based stitching programs. Some cameras emulate panoramics by basically using only the middle 1/3 across the full width the sensor emulating a panoramic shot (not recording the top and bottom 1/3).
Oh, and if your like me and get a true panoramic camera. Don't trust Kodak to cut your negatives correctly. They ruined 20 rolls of film right after I first got my camera. Even though I checked the special insturctions box, and clearly put on the envelope (panoramic pictures - do not cut negatives, frame size 57x24mm!!!). :x
