hi,

strange problem i'm having. if i stitch the pano first then export 3 stitched exposure layers, then tonemap the 3 full layers, I am getting a dark line down the pano, the hdr software seems to be making the pano darker on one side, resulting in a dark line where the 'edges' join in the finished 360.
to tonemap first with batch processing, then stitch. I can do that in photomatix but i find - nik hdr pro - so much better, but it does not do batch processing.

I have read many that seem to stitch first, tonemap second so where am i going wrong?

anyone had this happen?
