Panorama processing - workflow?
Has anybody established an optimal approach for producing panoramas?
Basically, I have a set of raw files - and the whole set makes up one panorama. Assuming that, technically speaking, the shooting was perfect, what is the best approach to produce a nice-looking panorama in, say, Hugin or Microsoft Image Composite Editor?
Which adjustments should be applied *before* going into the panorama stitcher? Colour? Exposure? Lens correction? Sharpening? Noise?
The transfer format, I guess, should be TIFF (16 bit)?
Is there any best practice? And what can I do in Capture One to minimize the effort required, e.g. by building processing recipes, presets, styles?
Thank you very much in advance for input!

My suggestion would be to do all the stuff you want to do, adjusting white balance, exposure, levels, saturation or whatever to a middle image from the set and then copy the adjustments to all the others. (If I am taking photos for a panorama I try to go for manual everything so that I am sure that at least the exposure is the same for all, even if I need to tweak it in C1 afterwards. If you set manual white balance they will all be the same; if you leave it to the camera to use auto white balance you may need to adjust some of the images so they match, though that is not hard to do.)
I would only process the images to TIFF or JPG after all that and then stitch them in whatever app suits your fancy at the end.
