∫ Technique for Panorama Shot Mode
Swivel the camera around its centre when moving it
in the recording direction. Hold the camera with
both hands, taking care not to shake it.
• When the focal length is long, such as when a
telephoto lens is attached, move the camera slowly.
• If the camera shakes too much, pictures may not be
able to be recorded, or the recorded panorama
picture may become narrower (smaller).
• Move the camera towards the edge of the range you
wish to record.
(The edge of the range will not be recorded in the last
frame.)
• If you change the facial expression or blink, the
recorded picture may look unnatural. Try to stay still.
• We recommend setting the zoom position to Wide
when using Self Shot Mode.
• Since the distance between the camera and subject is
close when you take panorama pictures in Self Shot
Mode, the edges of the pictures may appear
significantly distorted.
