Can someone please explain how the size of the imported panorama relates to the size of the photofield produced.
IBIS Burns Field.
Panoramic image size - 8160x3060 pixels.
DDS size 6 images of size 2.73Mb
Photofield G3X roughly 16Mb
Model Park
Panoramic image size - 8156x5437 pixels.
DDS size 6 images of size 10.92Mb
Photofield G3X roughly 65.7Mb
Model Park Half Resolution
Panoramic image size - 4078x2718 pixels.
DDS size 6 images of size 2.73Mb
Photofield G3X roughly 16Mb
I hate the half resolution version. It loses its crispness. However if I want to upload to the swap pages that's what has to go up.
What is the correct ratio of width:height for an import pano? I thought it was 3:2. Yet I got better results with Burns field which is set up for the wrong dimensions. Why the HUGE blowout in size? I just don't get it. Any help would be appreciated.
By the way I did have one bit of encouragement today. One of the guys at the local club who owned AFP has just bought G3 so he can use fly at his own home field. That must mean I have _something_ right (though obviously it's the whole product not just my amateur photofield). Anyway he was anxious to get his hands on a copy of the field so that was flattering. I just hope he's not disappointed in the long run.
