Hi.
I'm trying to create a panorama using the latest version of Photoshop - File / Automate / Photomerge.
The 'Auto' option gives a skewed result, probably because the images were not quite correctly levelled, but the 'Reposition' option seems to work fine.
The Adobe documentation for Reposition isn't clear (to me).
Can anybody explain why Reposition works ok when Auto doesn't, and outline any disadvantages in using this option?
Thanks in anticipation.
Reposition doesn't do anything to the image, no perspective correction. It just moves the frame as-is. In most cases you will get misaligned parts. Perspective correction is usually needed.
I've never been a fan of these rolled-into-one combo functions. If you split it up into its constituent components, you have a lot more control over the process: Stack > Auto-Align > Auto-Blend.
One importan aspect you can control is which frame serves as the reference frame that all the others align to: that's the one you put at the bottom of the stack. If you level this, the final result should be too.
