The optimal speed for moving the camera varies depending on the lens being used.

When the focal length is long, such as when a telephoto lens is attached, move the camera
slowly.

Pictures are taken with the electronic shutter in Panorama Shot Mode.

The focus, White Balance, and exposure are fixed at the optimum values for the first picture. As
a result, if the focus or brightness changes substantially during recording, the entire panorama
picture may not be recorded at the suitable focus or brightness.
•
When multiple pictures are combined to create a single panorama picture, the subject may
appear distorted or the connection points may be noticeable in some cases.
•
The number of recording pixels in the horizontal and vertical directions of the panorama picture
varies depending on the recording direction and the number of combined pictures.
The maximum number of pixels is shown below.
