Confusing review about noise and detail in RAW vs. best JPEG

If you are of the opinion that the term "pan" means to move the still camera from one stopped position to another, and only that, I'm sure you must be the only person here that thinks so. you are the only person who is making a distinction over panning for panoramas and panning for a moving subject because all you do is argue. To pan the still camera means to move the camera in conjunction with a moving subject. In still photography, panning is a continuous motion of the camera. In creating a still pano, the camera is moved - not panned - to a series of positions that overlap, stopped, and stills are taken in the positions. a pan-tilt tripod head does not say "only for use with moving subjects". keep in mind that old school panorama cameras did not stop as they panned. They usually wound film through as they panned. They used to use them for school photographs. If they were quick a boy could appear on both sides of the photograph. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

If we'd use a wide range of input from photographers, you'd be the only person using "panning" to mean moving the camera from one discrete point to another discrete point. you're arguing over word usage. nobody but you cares. To pan the still camera means to move the camera in conjunction with a moving subject. In still photography, panning is a continuous motion of the camera. In creating a still pano, the camera is moved - not panned - to a series of positions that overlap, stopped, and stills are taken in the positions. a pan-tilt tripod head does not say "only for use with moving subjects". Could you come up with a weaker defense of your misuse? Do you own a pan-tilt tripod that has a label on it that tells you of *any* use or *any* thing not to use it for? Or ever seen one? exactly my point. a pan-tilt head can be used to pan when the subject is not moving. |

wrote: We reposition the camera in taking a pano using a tripod. In panning, the camera is continuously moving. In a reposition, the camera is moved and then stopped. With video, panning is often done, but that's not creating a pano. as usual, you're arguing just to argue. moving the camera horizontally is called panning, whether or not the subject is tracked. a pan-tilt tripod head does not say "only for moving subjects". old school pano cameras panned in one long exposure. was that not panning? There seems to be support for your argument there always is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panning_%28camera%29 although you are using the word in an uncommon manner. common or not, it's correct usage. |

If think that Tony got a point for once! To pan the still camera means to move the camera in conjunction with a moving subject. In still photography, panning is a continuous motion of the camera.

Could you come up with a weaker defense of your misuse? Do you own a pan-tilt tripod that has a label on it that tells you of *any* use or *any* thing not to use it for? Or ever seen one? I have a pan head, bought separately. Works fine with stills... I wouldn't call that paning though. exactly my point. a pan-tilt head can be used to pan when the subject is not moving. If you do movies... ;-P -- teleportation kills |
