Editors’ Review

Download.com staff

When cameras do not have a panoramic capability, users may need a program to combine two separate images for the desired result. Hugin for Mac functions well, but is overly complicated for its relatively limited purpose.

The downloaded file folder contained multiple files in addition to a readme, and also had two subfolders, one of which was just for licenses. Installation of Hugin for Mac was overly complicated and actually placed two separate programs into the applications folder. Initiating the program also brought up a warning that a prior version was detected, which was not possible since the test computer had not used the application at any earlier time. Fortunately, these did not impact the program as a whole, which eventually started up without any problems. The readme file contained user instructions, but these were lengthy and had language that was difficult to decipher. Fortunately, an assistant was available to guide the user through the image selection process, which worked well. The program automatically analyzed the images for common points to combine them. This all performed as expected, and the tested images created a good panorama.

For those advanced users in need of a panorama creation program, Hugin for Mac performs well, but most users would find it overly difficult to use.

Developer’s Description

Panorama photo creation software.

Hugin is an open-source panorama photo creation tool. It can put multiple photos together very easily and the end result is smooth and stunning. Hugin uses the same open source library used by many other software including shareware like PTMac from Kekus Digital. Hugin is, however, free and you can start making panoramic photos without buying any expensive software or equipment. Unlike many similar software, Hugin considers the shapes of the lens and can adapt to the particular distortion profile of your camera.

For advanced users, hugin also has many features for making panoramas with special equipment, including two types of fisheye lenses and more.
