Gotta say, I'm very impressed by PTGui's performance vs APG - PTG is much faster at creating the stitch than APG is (I'm using 20MP pics and in the neighborhood of 400 pics per stitch).

I was curious if there was any logging available in PTG for seeing a dump of times taken for various stages in the processing.

I also was going to mention that, where with APG I woudl write out their proprietary KRO file, I can write out 4.5 and 9GB tiff files from PTGUI that actually open in NoMacs image viewer. I was worried about the 4GB limit that I was reading everywhere. Maybe that's only for certain apps like Photoshop.

In any event, great work! Will be buying the pro version shortly.

PTGui writes BigTIFF automatically if the file size is larger than 4GB.
But be aware that not all programs read BigTIFF. See
