ICE vs Lightroom Photo Merge

I updated LR today and thought I would try the photo merge with a three shot vertical stitch.

I'm not finding that in LR CC (non classic) program.




My choices (that I saw) were HDR merge, Panorama merge and HDR Panorama merge.

It's not a big deal, ICE works great.

Once you select Panorama Merge, you then select how you want it rendered. Spherical, cylindrical, or perspective are the options, and that can sometimes make a big difference in the outcome.

I have heard good things about ICE, and that it can sometimes merge pictures that Lightroom can't. It certainly worked great on your image.

I don't have LR, but have had some mixed results with I.C.E. Most of the time it works well, but a few times things just didn't for no good reason. Ha!

Just realized the the non classic version may not have these options. :)
