Panoramic Software

Does anyone have software for processing panoramic images (stitching them together) other than Photoshop that they like?

Though I have not used it much, this works pretty well ... can't beat the price either.

I have used Hugin - it does a nice job, but of late all my pano's are stitched in Lightroom or Photoshop.

Microsoft ICE is great. The new interface takes some getting used to, but it works perfectly.
I also have switched to using Lightroom exclusively for Pano stitching.

There are quite a few.
My favorite, though a bit of a learning curve PT/GUI
I like that Lightroom produces a dng file which is essentially still a raw file upon which you can continue to apply parametric adjustments as if it were a single raw file.
Hugin is great as well, also based on Panorama Tools, like PT/GUI.
Here is a pretty comprehensive list:

One thing that is not mentioned is panoramio (google earth) and photosynth (microsoft) Both are sites vs software but worth exploring.
photosynth does not stitch per say but will display your images as if they were a panorama. Because of that I am not sure what the real limits are. I once tried it with 300+ panorama and it did not balk.
That is a site I would recommend if you do want to bother with stitching for print and just want to display on the WEB.
Caveat: Since this is a MS project I do not know how long this will stay up. It has been for years now but if there is a change of policy?
Just looked at the sample I made.
There is a new view (over head) that shows the focus plan and as I tried to tell folks in a few threads, it is represented by an arc. In my case it was about 240 degrees...
So anyone who believes a camera has a flat plan of focus, take a gander as the numerous panoramas offered and use the overhead view.
Also allows for virtual tours like this one...

I have been using Lightroom lately along with Photoshop. I also have Autopano that I got before Christmas and am still learning to use. I find Lightroom does well on most of my handheld panoramas. If not, I use the other two programs.

Try serif's panorama plus. Version 3 is free with the upgrade bringing around 14 dollars.
Very powerful and slick
