Jose, I see stitching errors on complex subject matter.  Specifically, 
verticals like tree trunks are sometimes displaced laterally halfway up the 
trunks.

I see sometimes see a vertical band of blurring or a reduction of sharpness 
along a stitch boundary.

I'd like to be able to stitch stitches together.  This is difficult since 
Photovista will only work with images having identical pixel dimensions.

The program has difficulty dealing with wide angle lens shots, especially 
if there is substantial geometric image information.  Telephoto shots are 
much less problematic.

I must say, though for $100 it's pretty amazing software.  Since it's the 
only program I've used, I was curious to see if there were others out there 
that did better.  It's not been revised for quite a while, either.
