Hi Craig,

It was supposed to be a 49 photograph panorama taken completely planar with
no focus/depth adjustments.
At some point I must've shifted the holder or the camera and lost the focus
which results in some of the source images being out of focus.
As you said, *"... a pano without focus stacks where some images are
slightly out of focused and should be used but only as little as possible."*

Got it.

One complication I've seen in trying to get it to work, most of the
instructions are older pertaining to command line and I am using the GUI.
So for example, when I set options, it says "do not set -w ... arguments as
they are set by Hugin." I don't see anywhere I can even change such a
setting if it would help and including --wContrast=1 just caused it to
throw an error.

You can set extra options for the blending and fusing programs, inclusing enblend and enfuse, in Preferences/Programs. One point of confusion is, that *currently* -w/-o/--compression refer to the wrapping-mode, output-file, and compression, while in the old description that you found there existed --wSomething -- these are not meant by -w. These fusion options have been renamed and are now --exposure-weight=w, --saturation-weight=w, etc, with w = [0.0 .. 1.0]. Have a look at enfuse --help. Unfortunately I don't know what weights would be a good starting point.

I have done focus stacking with Zerene and Photoshop, but the guides I see
on doing it with Hugin are also out of date and seem to reference
parameters I have no access to (unless they're running a standalone program
for that purpose.)

I think the above should lead a step further. You could also share a subset of the project, a few photos, at least one bad one, overlapping, then I'd also give that a try.

cheers, lukas wirz
