This tutorial will help people new to photographing panoramas understand what Parallax Error and how to eliminate it to allow you to create seamless panoramas within 5 minutes.
Parallax Error occurs when photographing panoramas when the lens on your camera is not rotated around the Nodal Point/Entrance pupil of the lens.
This will result in your foreground detail not lining up with your background detail and can be easily seen as parts of the foreground will be easily seen as the foreground appearing multiple times once the panoramic image is stitched together.
This makes Parallax Error very hard to remove when editing your images since the necessary background detail might be obscured by some foreground detail.
Note If you shoot Panoramas only at infinity and never include any foreground detail, than the No Parallax Point is not a concern, but if you want to include foreground detail, middle-ground detail and background detail in your panorama than you need to have your camera rotate around the No Parallax Point.
