Aus hunderten von Einzelbildern entsteht ein sogenanntes Gigapan. Wir arbeiten mit einem Epic 100 und benutzen eine Canon Powershot G12 und eine Nikon D60 für die Aufnahmen. Die fertigen Panoramen werden auf den Server von gigapan.org übertragen und können dort in einem Flashviewer betrachtet werden, oder wir bereiten die Aufnahmen in krpano auf. Hier ein Beispiel: >>Gigapan Wohnwagen
Weitere Gigapanaufnahmen von Klaus Hoffmann finden Sie auf gigapan.org.
- Ein Gigapan hat eine sehr hohe Auflösung, unsere Beispielbilder haben Dateigrössen zwischen 600MB und 2GB, diese eignen sich hervorragend für den Ausdruck auf entsprechenden Grossformatdruckern.
- Hier sehen Sie ein Beispielbild während des Stitchingprozesses von 112 Einzelbildern:

The GigaPan Epic 100 comes with fully integrated software, the GigaPan Stitcher, which automatically combines photos to create gigapixel panoramas and uploads them to GigaPan.org. Specially designed to fit larger point and shoot cameras, the Epic 100 is also compatible with several small DSLR cameras. The Epic 100 can support a camera and lens combination of up to 3 lbs. See below for a complete list of features. For a list of compatible cameras visit our camera list.

Like the Epic, the Epic 100 is easy to use and remarkably efficient. To capture incredible gigapixel images simply set the corners of the panorama you want to capture using the LCD interface. The built in software works out how many photos your camera will need to take - hundreds or even thousands. Then the Epic100 begins snapping the photos, automatically organizing them in overlapping rows and columns.
The GigaPan Epic 100 has the same features and capabilities as the GigaPan Epic. In addition, the Epic 100 has the features listed below:
An extendable metal plate on the camera base to accommodate larger cameras
A greater elevation of the camera plate from the imager body of 33.5 mm to allow for a greater range for camera pitch (tilt or elevation)
The gearing for the pitch is 15:1 (versus 5:1 for the Epic) allowing for greater holding torque and finer precision movements
Illuminated display for night time shooting.
Start Delay/Timer Enables a timer delay before each panorama capture begins.
Multiple shutter Allows the Gigapan unit to take multiple pictures at each image location up to 9 times per position.
The GigaPan Epic 100 comes with the fully integrated GigaPan Stitcher software. The GigaPan Stitcher automatically combines the images captured by the GigaPan Epic 100 into a single brilliant panorama. The Stitcher does the work for you, aligning and blending your individual pictures together into a single panorama.
Share, store and explore, by uploading your gigapixel panorama to GigaPan.org where the powerful technology of the GigaPan Viewer allows you to zoom in and out, seeing unbelievable detail.
GigaPan Systems is currently developing the GigaPan DSLR Imager.
