Panorama

How many frames cover the sweep, and how far to turn between them.

Level the head, meter once and lock it, then turn about 26.5° a frame. Exposure and white balance fixed across the set — a stitcher can hide a seam, not a changing sky.

Camera

Turned upright is the usual way: a taller strip, at the cost of more frames.

Upright: 37.8° across, 54.4° high.

Turning the camera anywhere but the lens’s no-parallax point slides near objects against far ones, and no amount of overlap stitches that out. It is why a sweep of a distant ridge stitches cleanly and the same sweep with a rock in the foreground does not. Nothing here models it — if there is something close, use a nodal slide or accept the retouching.
