Beautiful 360° Panoramic Photography with Henrik Fessler

Photography has been Henrik Fessler’s personal passion for many years. In that time, he has used various mirrorless camera systems and has cultivated a big interest in panorama photography. Over the years, he has gathered a lot of knowledge regarding this specific genre and regularly shares it on his blog.

Many of his articles go in-depth about the technical aspect of producing 360° panoramas, while others focus on specific lenses Henrik has tried on different systems. Below are some of the most interesting articles he has written thus far:

Henrik highlights how important it is to use a pole to get the best shots possible to compose the final image.

It is important for me to get a spherical panorama with at least as possible round shots while retaining a certain level of resolution. And “catching the sphere” is always a challenge to catch as much, if not all from the bottom and/or the top. To start with, it’s a good idea to tilt the sensor: To get the maximum vertical field of view on a picture, the sensor diagonal is aligned perpendicular to the horizon line.

You can also find an in-depth article about the technical optics processing involved in creating the final results.
