What? You mean this stitching stuff wasn't invented by Adobe solely for digital photographers? It actually was done with film? And in a fume room no less? Next thing you know someone will be telling me that 19th century photographers used to move skies from one photograph into another in the darkroom.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
Thanks. I just got my first camera that has Live View a couple weeks ago. I've used it for checking depth of field and it's been great for that with my aging eyes. But since I don't own a T/S lens any more (used to have a shift lens with my Pentax 67 camera but it didn't have Live View : - )) I hadn't thought of using it in conjunction with a T/S lens.

It is allowed.But I'd certainly like to see talk about using view cameras with digital technology allowed.

Stitching was invented by the Talking Heads, about 1979. They weren't very good at it:

I can't figure out how the origins and/or use of stitching is relevant in any way shape or form to any of this discussion.
I was in the field this weekend. My digital camera konked out on me (weird dancing bars on the viewer). So I had to resort to some 50+ year old press camera - and film! - which worked like a charm. Of course...
Paul, It's because the article referenced by QT about Dykinga's switch to digital seems to imply that he invented the shift/stitch method. Ridiculous claim of course, as many of us, myself included, were doing this with view cameras and film to create panoramas long before it became popular with the DSLR crowd and employed it with DSLRs as soon as we bought one with T/S lenses (for me that was about 3 years ago).
