New Releases: Hugin 0.7.0 and GIMP 2.6.2

Friday, October 31st, 2008

Hugin has changed enormously in the two years since the 0.6.1 release, hardly any part of the code has remained untouched. There have been many many bug-fixes, improvements to the interface and lots of new features. We had a show about this panorama building software way back - seems to be time for a new one.

There is a new help system, new assistants, improved handling of images and correction of exposure. HDR is integrated and a lot more. Get the full thing here.

GIMP has released 2.6.2 - a lot of bugs have been killed. The version from Getdeb doesn’t install on Ubuntu Hardy - but I’ll switch to the Ibex soon.

Hugin news: a blog and enfuse

Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

Recently two interesting messages have been published on the Hugin
site
.

First, a blog has been launched to provide regular news on Hugin and related open source tools such as panotools. It is called “This week in panospace”.

Second, as part of the upcoming stable release 0.7.0 enfuse will be incorporated which permits to blend images with different exposures. It resembles HDR but is geared towards panorama photography. On that subject a nice tutorial has been written which gives at the same time a nice overview of how to work with Hugin.
