PanoramaStudio Pro For Mac

A panorama can reveal a lot more than a single photo, and with the right viewer, it delivers a 3D view of the scene that makes you feel you’re actually there.

PanoramaStudio Pro is the more advanced version of PanoramaStudio, with some exclusive features and expanded functionality. It enables you to combine multiple photos into a panorama, with a lot of the process being handled automatically.

The app’s main selling point is the ease with which you can stitch your photos together. Essentially, you can just drop them in the main window, click Align, and you’ll get your panoramic images. Of course, this is reliant upon the photos being captured correctly in the first place.

PanoramaStudio Pro looks for matching features in photos that can be used as control points, and it performs various corrections to the final image: exposure mismatches, brightness, while balance, lens distortion, and so on.

Of course, you’ll often need to make some manual adjustments to get perfect results. Thankfully, pretty much every automated action can be tweaked by the user, which is especially helpful if the source images weren’t captured in ideal conditions.

Similarly, image adjustments allow you to change the look of the final panorama without transferring it to a more powerful image editor.

The Pro version’s standout feature is HDR support, using tone mapping or exposure fusion. The latter makes it possible to create HDR-like images from non-HDR photos.

The Pro edition gets viewpoint correction, which allows you to work with images that weren’t taken from the exact same viewpoint.

There’s also automatic white balance correction, support for fisheye lenses, and a tool for sorting large numbers of source images.

As a more advanced version of the product, PanoramaStudio Pro is suitable for photographers who want to work with HRD content or find the extra features to be worth the additional cost. It’s a great panorama creator on the whole, with a very gentle learning curve.
