I would like to brake a lance for Serif. This rather small company has done a great job. I am a retired software QM (aerospace), but without knowing the Serif team I would say "Brothers in Arms".
I have been following the discussion about V2 since spring but have not commented. It was commented on by others only to comment, but hardly take a position on the matter itself.
V2 still has some flaws, but also some highlights. The tutorials also appeared with the release, great work.
There are people who complain about the price of V2, but buy an IPhone only to look into their bank account and see how badly it is overdrawn.
The price is ok and I buy V2, as support and appreciation of their work, although V1 is sufficient for me.
From my point of view the new installer is ok. But people like to stay in their easy chairs and avoid any changes. These people will hopefully be appeased with the announcement that msi is coming.
However, it would be great to have all the work arounds (bat-file, icons on desktop, etc.) in one place. I don't want to dig into Windows anymore to solve the problems myself, for example to launch Photo from another application. I could, but prefer taking photos and making photo books (my easy chair).😊

Mais je vous le demande, peut-on imaginer une police sans sérifs ? 👍
Un jeu de mots, difficile pour les non-francophones, même si l'on utilise un dictionnaire. 

This is a picture from the Harz Mountains. I grew up there and took some photos last year, probably in anticipation of the Corona crisis. So I can make a stroll in the forest, without going there.
It was part of a project for super resolution photos. For this picture I took 23 photos with a Canon M6, six rows with three photos and some spare photos. Normally about 15 are sufficient.
In this case I used all photos trying different software. Affinity, o.k. but a little slow, Autopano from Kolor (not longer available) same result, but much faster. As far as I know, the same algorithm is used in both programmes. Lightroom, stitching o.k. but it was not possible to see the final result in 1:1. Hugin ... no success.
The resulting picture was about 200 Mpx and a resolution of about 300 dpi. I used the slice function and let it print on a roll printer (cost reason) and framed it in an old paravant. It costed me about 70€ printing and shipping.
With the high resolution one can really see the fox gloves (digitalis) and not some "pixel swamp".
For panoramas with spruces there were no problems with stitching. For panoramas with similar views and beech trees, stitching was usually not successful in the leaf area.
Have a nice weekend

Is this the anthem of the British Labour Party? The text however seems to be  Deutsch.
