What software do you use to stitch? Not having much luck with all this at the moment so any tips and pointers would be grat…

I’m trying out Panocool with some success although the stitch line is a bit poor. [image] How to Stitch DJI Avata 360 Photos for Free (PanoCool Stitcher Guide) When you shoot in DNG from DJI Avata 360, the drone saves two separate fisheye images capturing everything above and below the …
