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.

A panorama picture may not be able to be created, or the pictures may not be combined properly 
when recording the following subjects or under the recording conditions below.
