The stitching is very good. Used tripod, and changed the camera shot angle by the head vertical axis? (I suppose you did so).
Thanks Dirk I suppose i should have shared that bit of info
I actually hand held the camera in the portait orientation and snapped off the 8 frames turning my body in a 180degree arc to get them all in.
I wasnt too confident how it would turn out and wasn't sure if i should leave the camera in AF or not (which i did) but i was surprised with the outcome.
I had almost no input when it came to the stitching i just selected the frames i wanted in the order i wanted and the program did the rest. very easy indeed. (my kind of program)

Thanks Tim I wasn't too fussed with the subject matter in the pic i just wanted to see how well it stitched together and i must say i was impressed, for a fully functional freebie program it worked fantastic. I cant wait to get out and get some descent shots

My first attempt at a panarama. Taken from the reserve at the back of my house. I got a bit carried away as it was 8 shots stitched together using the DA18-55 kit lens. I used a program called Panarama Maker 4 which came bundled with an XD picture card i brought for my Fuji P&S.
What do you think :
Excuse the width

Sorry i can't help, I have done the upgrade on the 100d and the K10 but not the super
I would'nt think they would change the version number though, but you never know i guess. Good luck with it though.

Hmmm you could be right i didnt think of that. Maybe the k100d super is different. Do a bit more research.

When you check the current firmware on the camera does it tell you what version you are running. Maybe the super already has the 1.02 upgrade

If you can format the card on the computer (via a card reader) just delete the dcim folder. You should also be able to see the bin file, double check you have the right one and go through the install procedure again. i can't see why it would'nt work if you have followed all the instructions to the letter : :

Are you sure you formatted the memory card before you started :
If you left even an empty folder on you card and extracted the file into the folder the camera won't read it.

Also i assume you downloaded the self extracting file to your computer harddrive first(save to your desk top so its easy to find) and then extracted the bin file to your memory card. You can then install it onto your camera by turning the camera on while holding down the menu button.

Make sure you have a fully charged battery and delete the file from your card when finished. Hope this helps
