I don't shoot such ambitious vertical panoramas, circular, or full spheres. I basically shoot strips. Sorry if my wording confused you!

thank you.

"I just do horizontal single row panoramas". if you don't use fisheye, how can you have 180* vertical with a single row? if you use a 28mm, it doesnt cover all the sphere in a single row, am i wrong?

    I just do horizontal single row panoramas, too, almost always

    Also, like you, stand at one spot and rotate my body carefully. I use
    about 50% overlap. Everything pretty much works out well, even when I
    get adventurous and shoot a second row above the first one.

    In Hugin, I add horizontal lines to sea horizons (or the tops of
    fences
    if there's a line of fencing behind what I'm shooting) before running
    any other automatic control point detection.

    I've also found that progressing through the Hugin geometric
    optimizations helps if I follow each by running Clean control points
    after each one. Start with positions (incremental), then Positions
    (y,p,4) and so on. If I'm feeling really aggressive, I'll keep
    doing the
    "Everything without translation optimization > Clean control points >
    repeat optimization"  process until no points are removed after
    cleaning.

    I just use ordinary lenses - 28-75mm zoom and a 500mm reflex. I don't
    have anything in the fisheye range and don't see a need for one. I
    shoot
    using a full-frame 60MPX camera and love lots of details, so the
    idea of
    using a wide angle or fisheye to cram a wider field of view into the
    frame just means (to me) I would lose details.

    A friend of mine's response to me shooting panoramas has always been,
    "Just get a wide angle lens already!" 😉

    Happy panorama shooting!
