Re: Stiching Software, who needs it?

[Bill Glickman <bglick@xxxxxxxx>]

How are you scanning your Noblex images that force them to be stitched?  If
they are 6x17 or less, can't you scan them as one piece?

Keep in mind.... this does not apply to people who stitch many stills that
are taken together for a Pan.... whole different ballgame, stitching
software is mandatory due to the warping effect of each image...they will
not align..... this is not true though with your swing lens Noblex..
