Is it possible to take a panoramic picture made with a camera and turn into hdri picture to use in Vue5I? Do I need to convert the panoramic picture to make it to work?

Thank you. Doesn't hdr shop require the use of a mirror sphere to be used in order to make hdri pictures?

ok there are different descriptions of "panoramic" Do you mean a trye 360 panoramic ccamera? (rare item) a Fish Eye wide angle lens? Or a stitching of multiple pictures? Note to make a true HDRI pic, from what I recall you need multiple pictures to combine them alll for the total necessary amount of luminance, but I don't know if that means you could merley copy one pic multipel times. I have heard of a panoramic series of camera images (multiple pics stitched together) being used to make an HDR but it's not somehting I know to much about :/

Yes, you can use a large chrome ball bearing or similar, I've seen shops online selling suitable items but best ask folk who know about HDR regarding the details :)

Try AUTO STITCH if you want to stitch pictures together, acedemic based site review the forums I thought I saw HDRI mentioned. R Www.panoguide.com

I have a Canon camera that comes with software that auto stitches the pictures. The results were amazing. The resolution of the picture is 22,000 x 1000. Would I be able to put this picture in as a HDRI or something similiar? Sorry I wasn't clear in my previous posts. Thanks for the help and the link. I'll keep trying.
