Description:

Create high quality panoramas

PTGui is panoramic image stitching software for Windows and macOS. Originally started as a Graphical User Interface for Panorama Tools (hence the name), PTGui has evolved into a full featured, industry leading photo stitching application.


Limitations of the trial version

The PTGui trial version is intended for evaluation only, and adds a visible watermark to all stitched panoramas. Except for this limitation the trial version is fully functional. There's no time limit and you can create panoramas of unlimited size. If you like PTGui, consider buying a license!


Fast
PTGui is blazing fast! Thanks to OpenCL GPU acceleration PTGui is able to stitch a 1 Gigapixel panorama in about 25 seconds on modest hardware.

Automatic
Just drop your photos into PTGui and it will figure out how they overlap. PTGui can stitch multiple rows of images and supports all lenses, including fisheyes.

Powerful
PTGui gives you full control over the result, enabling you to create perfect panoramas even of difficult scenes, where other stitchers fail.

Spherical Panoramas
Create fully spherical 360° x 180° panoramas. PTGui includes interactive panorama viewers both for local viewing on your computer, and for embedding in a web page.

Look around, up and down in the scene by clicking and dragging with the mouse.

Gigapixel Panoramas
Or stitch hundreds or even thousands of photos together into stunning images with billions of pixels. Create photos which are sharp even when printed meters wide!

HDR Panoramas
PTGui Pro offers full support for HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography. No additional software needed! Just load your bracketed source images, PTGui Pro will combine them into an HDR panorama. High quality tone mapping and exposure fusion algorithms are built in. OpenEXR output is also supported, for HDR rendering applications.


PTGui comes in two versions: PTGui and PTGui Pro. The main difference between the two versions is support for HDR stitching, masking, viewpoint correction and vignetting, exposure and white balance correction in PTGui Pro.
