Making a panorama from the very beginning to sharing it online, is a complicated process. To create a 360 photo I always work alone. You can also use point-and-shoot 360 cameras, such as Ricoh Theta, Samsung 360, or Nikon Key Mission. I usually use Nikon DSLR cameras to shoot a 360 photo.

What equipment & software do you use when taking a 360 photo? The combination of panoramas in one piece is called a "virtual tour" and can be interactively explored. A 360 photo can amazingly reflect the atmosphere of mass events, historic buildings or museums. They can show everything: hotels, guesthouses, clubs, restaurants and pubs. More and more topics are being presented this way. The only drawback was the unprofessional appearance of this device but I keep it to this day with sentiment.Ī 360 photo, virtual tours and gigapixel panoramas are visually spectacular. It was working so good that I was able to take almost ideal panoramas. With the help of a friend and after spending around $10 I was able to create a provisional panohead. As you know, photospheres need special panohead, which wasn't easy to get. There were a few stitching errors, but for the first time the result of my work was stunning.Īfter this test, the desire to capture panoramas was even greater. Even a few years later, today, it's a great result.

The picture was huge, it had around 110 megapixels. Without using a tripod I took a flat panorama with an angle close to 180 degrees. I was at the Baltic Sea in Wladyslawowo where I climbed the observation tower and was standing 63 meters above the ground.

The first and successful attempt was about 8 years ago. It became easier when I started using a digital camera. I was thinking about stitching pictures in a panorama for a long time.

That's how I caught the bug of professional photography. When I was a kid I was spending hours in a temporary darkroom that was made in a bathroom. I got my first camera Smiena 8M for the first communion, when I was about 8 years old, the next one - a Russian SLR Zenith 122 I bought with my own money a few years later. My passion for photography started when I was a kid. That's why it's important to make sure that everything around you is artistically coherent. With a 360 photo you see the entire surrounding. If you have a normal picture, it's not possible to look behind the photographer. In my opinion a 360 photo is a better version of a flat image. I take pictures of spaces, such as rooms or houses to provide 360 photo documentation and I've recently started digging into 360 degree video.Īlthough I take regular pictures, 360 photography is what I love. I am involved in landscape and reportage photography. I create virtual tours and take gigapixel panoramas. My name is Tomasz and I am a 360 photographer that comes from southeastern Poland. Saint Nicolas orthodox church in Hrebenne, Poland. Poland has always been a place where cultures of the East and the West were merging and Tomasz is perfect in capturing the magic of that. Today we present an interview with Tomasz Mielnik, a 360 photographer that comes from southeastern Poland.
