There are 7 Panoramas

I am a bit of photography buff. I am an enthusiast of panoramas. Especially the Virtual Tours you find on 360cities.

A lot of my knowledge came from the following tutorials:

• How To Get Started on 360° Panoramic Photography - 360cities.net
• Panorama Tutorial Series by FloTube and elfloz

What I use

My camera equipment consists of the Canon EOS Rebel XS with a Bower 8mm Fisheye lens (known with many other names like Samyang). I also use a Panoramic Tripod Head called Panosaurus to minimizing the parallax errors.

After this is done I use a lot of tools. The most prominent tools are:

• Hugin - A panorama stitcher.
• GIMP - An image editor.

After I developed a finish product I will deploy it by converting it to several formats. The following are tools I use in the background but are not needed for making a panorama.

• Panotools - Command line tools to convert panoramas
• GrapicsMagick - Command line tool to convert images
• Pannellum - An HTML5/WebGL Panorama viewer

I develop these on either a Linux machine running Ubuntu or a Mac with Mac OS X.
