Handrail Pool

Here at the end of the trail at Weano Gorge we have the Handrail Pool
A stitched panorama from a single row of five (5) horizontal frames with the fabulous Nikon Z7 plus the 14-30/4 Z lens at 23mm

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.
… and just for comparison here is that panorama compared to two I took with the Mavic 2 Pro
Those are comprised of three (3) rows of seven (7) horizontal frames with a 28mm equivalent lens. And these are the straight out of drone JPEG pano’s
At this size and even full screen on my computer they compare very favourably
The differences appear when you view it zoomed (like at 1:1)
The Z7 pano is 21,000 pixels across and has superb detail and clarity even zoomed to 1:1. The Mavic 2 pano’s are 8,200 pixels across and not anywhere near as clean
I suspect if I stitched the RAW images out of the Mavic they would be better but still I expect not near the Z7
Still for what it is and the portability, convenience and indeed possibilities… the Mavic 2 Pro produces very nice and usable images
