- Support, however, with a restitch I think you could just about get a FP out of this. Take a similar approach to the other miami image to correct the verticals. In advanced mode you can then go to "image parameters", adjust the exposure offset for each image until they match up, that should get rid of the banding in the sky. I'd sharpen it a bit afterwards. Try and darken the brighter segments rather than lighten the darker ones in order to avoid blown highlights. Noodle snacks (talk) 04:19, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
- I didn't notice anything relating to exposure under the Image Parameters. The help pages didn't seem to mention anything about exposure not relating to HDR. Am I missing something? ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 20:20, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
- here is where to find it. The adjustment is in stops. It won't save you for HDR but if you accidentally leave a camera in Av or something then its pretty useful. Noodle snacks (talk) 01:30, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
- Hmmm, weird; I don't have any of those columns. Is it a difference between regular and Pro? I don't have pro. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 02:09, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
- It may be, I don't really know. You could adjust the exposures in an external program (particularly easy if you have RAWs to work from), but it'd be more time consuming to get them to match. If PTgui won't do it then I know hugin (generally not as good) will output a panorama in such a format that each image is a separate layer in photoshop, you can then adjust it there.

- Doesn't seem to be worth my time unfortunately. This is still up for vote here at VPC. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 18:43, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
