Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LZ40 Operating Instructions Manual page 117

Recording by Panorama Shot Mode is ended before finishing.
•
If the camera is moved too slowly, the camera assumes that camera motion was stopped and ends
the still picture recording.
•
If there is a lot of camera shake in the recording direction while moving the camera, recording ends.
> When recording in Panorama Shot Mode, try to trace a small half-circle parallel to the recording
direction, taking about 4 seconds to complete the half-circle (approximate).
The Burst speed is slow.
•
Depending on the operating conditions, it may take time to take the next picture if you repeat
the recording of pictures.
•
It may take time to save pictures taken in Burst Mode on the card. If you take pictures
continuously while saving, the maximum number of recordable pictures decreases. For
continuous shooting, use of a high speed memory card is recommended.
•
The burst speed (pictures/second) may become slower depending on the recording
environment such as in dark places, if the ISO sensitivity is high, etc.
•
The burst speed becomes slower halfway.
The exact timing of this depends on the type of card and the Picture Size.
