For those who cannot afford to shellout for Photoshop and, thus, benefit from its photomerge feature Microsoft has saved the day with a free alternative. It's been a while since I looked at the Microsoft Research site, so it came as a surprise to see that they have released Microsoft Image Composite Editor (ICE). It really is a neat package and can export your image in various formats (TIF, JPEG, PNG, etc). While AutoPano leads in the field of photostitchers, it's not free so Microsoft deserves a mention. Here 's my attempt at producing a panoramic shot from my bedroom window and using Microsoft ICE.
