== Welcome to the panorama tools wiki ==
 
  
The [[Wiki History|wiki]] that aims to show you what you can do with the [[panorama tools]] and how to use them the best way.
+
Consult the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki software.
  
The panorama tools are mainly used to build [[PanoRama|panoramic images]] from a set of overlapping images.
+
== Getting started ==
The usability extends "just" building panorama's by far though. You can, for instance, use them to render an average of multiple images to broaden the [[dynamic range]] of the images or average out noise. You can also build object movies with them, morph between images and much more. See [[panorama tools applications]] for an extensive list.
 
  
We hope you'll find this knowledge base interesting and useful. And if you feel something is missing, please feel free to add your knowledge. All pages on this wiki are editable by you. Let the [[FAQ]] page help you on your way. If you are not up to adding something yourself, please add a description of what you think is missing to the [[requested pages]] page. However, you need an account and you need to [[Special:Userlogin|login]] to edit.
