Shooting in Stitch Assist Mode

Stitch Assist mode can be used to shoot images, which overlap, and
which can later be merged to create one panoramic image on a
computer.
• To merge the images on the computer, use PhotoStitch, one of
the supplied programs.

Framing a Subject

The PhotoStitch program detects the overlapping portions of
adjoining images and merges them. When shooting, try to include
a distinctive item (landmark) in the overlapping portions.
• Compose each frame so that it overlaps 30 to 50% of the
adjoining image. Try to keep the vertical misalignment to less than
10% of the image height.
• Do not include moving items in the overlap.
• Do not try to stitch images that include both distant and close
items. Objects may appear warped or doubled up.
The overlapping seams of
several adjacent images can
be joined into a single
panoramic image.
