I regularly merge DNG shots taken on iPhone 15 in RAW (Apple RAW???) to panoramas in LR (cloud based) - I use AE/AF Lock on the iPhone to ensure all exposures are equal - Then once they have gone up into the Adobe cloud and come down to my Macbook Air (M2-2022) in LR (desktop cloud based), I merge to panorama from the DNG originals. Todays results are poor. I have experienced this issue a few times before, but am now perplexed. So, just to see if it made any difference, I developed each DNG to a similar feel, then exported as full size jpegs, re-imported those jpegs, and perfomed a panorama merge from them - the result is much better - see the attached small scale images (7300 pixel wide reduced to 1024 at 60% quality - to keep a small file size) - even on this small file size its abvious "pano 2" is the poor one - has anybody got any idea what is happening here? (pano 2 didnt sort the boundary correctly either!)
