The idea of starting a iPhone related blog had been around my mind for some times, but I’m too lazy to think of another name or to setup a blog again. So I decided to add iPhone related stuffs here. Just for anyone information, I own a iPhone 3G. Nothing to shout about, since the latest version is iPhone 3GS (I’m waiting for the next version of iPhone!). I’m a big fan of jailbreaking my iPhone (There soooo much benefits).
To continue from the last post, I will start off with reviewing AutoStitch. Currently, AutoStitch Panorama costs USD $1.99 in itunes. More information can be found at the official website for AutoStitch. What I like about AutoStitch is the simple interface. It is so easy and simple to use but there are some functions which I think it can improve on. Currently, you have to shoot photos using the default iPhone’s camera and open the AutoStitch apps to combine the photos. I will have to use 2 apps to stitch 1 panoramic photo. I wish there is a camera option in the AutoStitch which will cut down the extra step. Some other panorama apps does have a “preview” mode where you can have a guideline on how much you can overlap. Overall, I think it is worth it to get AutoStitch if you are a fan of panorama photos.
1. “Guideline” for overlapping. (taken with my iPhone, sorry for the bad quality!)
How to use AutoStitch
The following sample photos are taken from the AutoStitch’s website by Cloudburst Research Inc.
First, you have to select the photos from the photo album. The photos that you selected will take some time to load in the apps. After loading all the photos, just click on the Stitch button.
2. Select photos to stitch
.
AutoStitch will analyse and create an “stitched” images as show below. You can choose to crop or the parts you want and then save the photo.
3. The final product. You can choose to crop or save.
