•  Question What is the angle of view? Complete 360°? I am always irritated with curved lines on architecture motives. Have you tried different projections? I wished the buildings especially the ones in the foreground non-curved but I do not know if it is possible with this angle of view. German: Welchen Blickwinkel umfasst das Panorama? Ich bin bei Architekturmotiven immer wieder irritiert, wenn dort gekurvte Linien auftauchen, wo eigentlich gerade Linien sein sollten. Speziell bei den Gebäuden im Vordergrund empfinde ich das als recht störend. Hast du mal unterschiedliche Projektionen ausprobiert? Vermutlich ist es hier unvermeidbar Kompromisse einzugehen. --Tuxyso (talk) 22:25, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Surely, Ralf can answer this precisely, but it looks like the angle of view is somewhere between 210° and 260°. Projections without any curved lines are only mathematically possible blow 180° in any direction and only reasonably far below that. The chosen projection has the advantage of not distorting anything (esp. in the vertical direction). //Ralf kann das sicher genau beantworten, aber es sieht nach etwas zwischen 210° und 260° aus. Projektionen ohne gekurvte Linien sind nur bei weniger als 180° Blickwinkel mathematisch möglich und nur bei erheblich weniger sinnvoll. Die gewählte Projektion hat (insbes. vertikal) den Vorteil, dass nichts übermäßig verzerrt ist. — Julian H.^✈(talk/files) 06:25, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
    • The angle is ca. 250°. I dont like Photos with 9000 x 1000 pixels, also i have done 14 pictures with 11mm lens and vertical orientation of the camera.
