I created a short sequence of 180 shots the other day, where I could not extend tripod legs properly, so camera was able to pan slightly.
This happened every time I made and exposure change for the HG method.
I have initialised in LRT3 and gone through the frames and marked as 4 star all the ones where the camera has moved. Also marked first and last with 4 stars
Opened in LR4, loaded metadata,viewed and cropped all the 4 * Keyframes so that a central image is stationary..effectively removing the unwanted camera pan.
Saved metadata, and reloaded in LRT.
When I look at the crops they are all fine. so now I need to apply transitions to the intermediate frames..but how.
I have tried Individual transitions with Linear selected and only the crop boxes (Select Column (Only This)) applied.
Tried Curves and also Auto transitions..nothing seems to work to create a jump free sequence.
I was planning on a two stage process. Crop and 'stabalise' the pan first..then process the HG frames..
I had tried doing the HG frames first, but because of the panning..the reference area moves.
any hints ?
