Grimselpass

Tags: switzerland , pass , grimsel , hofi

- Canon EOS 5d (full frame) ISO 100 f/10 1/200sec
- 200mm fixed focal length
- pixSize 4386 x 2912

- vov 5°
- 37rows by 9columns (333pix) (190° by 50°) slightly cropped in photoshop

- i use a manfrotto pano head on a Gitzo tripod and shoot row by row manually (which btw is about 5 times the weight but also twice as fast and a lot less shaky and a lot sharper than gigapanos taken with the gigapan robot and a Canon G9)

GigaPan Stitcher 0.4.3865. i am absolutely impressed by the quality of the stitching. you hardly find any stitching errors - even in the cables that cross the middle lake. (of course it's really important to do the parallax adjustments on your pano head as well as possible) hophi

Which is the pass with the War Eagle monument that looks south towards Italy?
