Weird Color Shift in LRC Merge to Panorama

I recently used the "merge to panorama" tool in LRC to merge a set of 8 photos. LRC had no problem preparing the preview merge and the preview image looked good. However, the finished file displayed a weird variability in color hue. The image color hue looked normal at the left side of the pano but gradually shifted from left-to-right to a much warmer hue.

 

After restarting the app, then the computer, then updating the graphics driver, the problem persisted. Eventually, I selected the 8-photo set in LRC, opened them as layers in Photoshop, and then used PS's merge to panorama tool to create the pano. This worked fine and created a finished pano that doesn't have the weird color hue shift.

 

I'm using version 11.2 of LRC and 14.2 of ACR on a Windows 11 laptop (ver. 21H1, OS build 22000.556)

I may be experiencing a similar issue using jpgs from my new pixel 9 phone that is set to P3 color mode: weirdly dull renderings for only a few of the images in the set, which individually look well exposed and rendered, and no problem when processed into pano in Photoshop.

Upload the original photos to Dropbox, Google Drive, Wetransfer, or similar and post the sharing link here. That will make it possible for Adobe to see what might be going wrong. Unless they can reproduce the issue, they won't pay much attention.

Hi @GHmuddyknees, Thanks for your comments, but this post is quite old. Please feel free to start a new conversation with screenshots, or video of your workflow, and if the issue appears with specific images, consider sharing a few samples. Thanks! ^CH
