I moved from iPhone to Canon M50 and PhotoStitcher software, still room to improve, but getting good results, cheers!

Very nice photo!
Would you give more details: what objective, eyepiece, rekay lenses, camera lens ?
Do you directly control the M50 from a computer by means of USB cable and EOS Utility, or WiFi?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you!

I'm using an AO 110 with CAT 1017 4x lens. Universal Camera Microscope Adapter NDPL-1(2X) inserted into trinocular port to the M50 (no lens) using EOS Utility/USB.

I tried using a 10x eyepiece in the trinocular with a Konica microsccope adapter connected to my Canon but I couldn't really do any better in terms of FOV than with the simple NDPL.... I might need more expertise/experimentation with eyepiece height and camera distance, etc.

PhotoStitcher works great for me so far as I'm using a Mac.

Yes! I started using Hugin and it was too complicated for me. I tried PhotoStitcher on trial and it worked immediately. I couldn't save the image without purchasing. I'm a satisfied customer so far!
