Hey Jesse!

Regarding the quality: the panos are oversharpened and have lots of artefacts. But in terms of quality definitely inacceptable are the extreme CAs!
I suspect you used noise-reduction and then too much sharpening (some surfaces look somewhat muddy). The sharpening emphasises the CAs - but they´re too much anyway.

Think about a better lens with less CAs or try the lens @f8. If it has that much CAs still @f8 - then it´s unusable. Can you tell us about your setup?

Hi Klaus!

Thanks for the feedback. Lately i added lightroom into my workflow, awesome product. Too much sharpened, depends what you like. Ok when you zoom in, it's clearly visible but i just now restricted too much of that. And now on i start masking the sharpening more be more around the edges and leave surfaces alone.

If i remember right, you and many others have complained about CA in my panos and i still have to give you the same reply. I can't see them! Colorblind as i am, it's simply not there for me. It's a thing i really can't help. In my eyes the pictures look completely fine.

My setup is Canon 7D with 8mm sigma fisheye. These were shot with f8 iso 100 with 7 brackets. I have MKIII and 8-15mm lens on my shopping list when i get enough money to update But for now, i have to deal with this gear.

Really: i´d never guessed that! Should be looking smoother.
How do you process the 7 steps?
