When making panoramas inside you MUST use some sort of rig to spin the
camera perfectly on it's focal point. That's the only way to make sure
that you aren't introducing a lot of parallax distortion. If you are
outside you can often get away with just taking a bunch of pictures in a
circle because objects in the picture are far enough away that a few
inches won't be noticeable, but when you are inside just a couple of
inches of difference in the pictures causes a tremendous amount of
distortion that Hugin won't be able to deal with automatically, and even
if you manually set control points, the control points won't make sense
to Hugin because the distortion will skew the math. It is possible to
manually set control points but you have to only set points on objects
that are all the same distance from the camera. If you try to set
control points that are at different distances, that's where you run
into trouble. It's like when you hold you your finger in front of your
face and alternately close one eye and then the other and your finger
jumps back and forth... the same things happens inside Hugin and it
really doesn't like it.
On a related note, just because I have time to type more, you can use
Hugin to stitch panoramas of distant objects that have smaller objects
in the foreground, such as a sign at the grand canyon telling you not to
jump off, that you don't want in the picture, by purposely taking
pictures that would normally introduce distortion. All you have to do
is make sure that you only set control points on the furthest away
landscape that you really want, and then use Hugin's masking feature to
mask out the object (sign in this case) that you don't want and when it
gets done you will have a nice signless pictures of your landscape.
