A little something I put together whilst waiting for the Australian Grand Prix - this is two sections ( a 4x4 and a 4x3 ) of the full Panorama taken at Larrys Leap. I'm hoping to be able to do the section looking into Ten.Val next week.

Hi Doug,
I remember your saying that you use PTGui to create your panoramas. I downloaded the program last night and tried to creat a 2 x 2 mosaic (2 rows, 2 frames per row). Unfortunately, the resulting mosaic cut off the top half and right half of the original images.
Can you tell me what settings I should use for the pancam and navcam photos? That is, what focal length and lens size should I indicate. Do I have to set the dimensions of the final panorama?
Thanks in advance,
Aldo.

I know pancam has an effective focal length of 38 mm and a FOV of 16.8°. Somewhere else I read 16.6° so I'm not exactly sure but I use 16.8 most of the time. Navcam is 45°.
You should see the Pancam user guide, available via the Cornell site.

Thanks, NIX......can't wait for your website updates!!

NIX, what do you mean with "Cornell site"?
There is a "Support/FAQ" site on the software page: http://www.ptgui.com/support.html Even there I've found a link to a german user who gives tips on his page.

Not sure I understand the problem - I just use 16.6 for pancam and 45 for Navcam - the other info ( sensor size, focal length etc ) are just ways to come to a degree value

The last link is a small document compared to the Mer/Pancam data processing user's guide but the necessary info is there.

Oh that way 
I misunderstood one or two posts above. I already thought NASA/JPL etc. use PTGui too for their unequaled Mars panos. 
I've already known this links, anyhow thank you.

wow doug. It looks like your 2 image color is working nicely.
I am amazed at how you get the colors to match so well. Time to read more on photoshop.
Someday mabey i'll get close to dougs level of mastery but for now I am but a lowely aprentice. (that spells bad and dosent have a spell check on his computer)
