Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1R User Manual page 56

Horizontal direction
First press the shutter button halfway so that you can lock the focus and exposure. 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 a case, adjust the frame composition so that the section is in the
center of the image, then shoot again.
Notes
If you cannot pan the camera across the entire subject within the given time, a gray area occurs in
the composite image. If this happens, move the camera faster to record a full panoramic image.
When shooting subjects with little contrast, such as the sky or ocean, shooting may stop.
Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part will not be recorded smoothly.
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 the AE/AF
locked angle and shoot again.
You cannot create panoramic images in the following situations:
You pan the camera too quickly or too slowly.
There is too much camera shake.
