First, press the shutter button halfway so that you can lock the focus, exposure and white
balance. Then, press the shutter button fully down and pan or tilt the camera.
If a section with greatly varied shapes or scenery is concentrated along a screen edge, the
image composition may fail. In such case, adjust the frame composition so that the section
is in the center of the image, then shoot again.
Notes
If in Panorama shooting excessive camera shake occurs shooting stops, and a gray area
will appear in the composite image. Be sure to shoot without blur.
Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part will not be recorded smoothly.
Under low light conditions, panorama images may be blurred or the shooting may not be
successful.
Under lights that flicker, such as fluorescent lights, the brightness or color of the combined
image will not always be the same.
When the whole angle of panoramic shooting and the AE/AF locked angle are very different
in brightness, color and focus, the shooting will not be successful. If this happens, change
AE/AF locked angle and shoot again.
Sweep Panorama is not suitable for the following situations:
Moving subjects
Subjects are too close to the camera
Images with little contrast, such as sky, sandy beach or lawn
Images with constant changes, such as waves or waterfalls
You cannot create panorama images in the following situations:
You pan the camera too quickly.
