5 -  TAKING YOUR PICTURES

Lighting plays a crucial role in how your hemispheres look as a completed 
iPIX image. Just like in traditional photography, you must be aware of 
light sources. If you take a picture of a room facing the brightest light 
source, a window for example, then that hemisphere will appear dark in 
the area surrounding the window. The opposing hemisphere will have a 
normal exposure. When you build the iPIX image using these two hemi-
spheres, the lighting will be unbalanced, with one half of the image dark, 
and the other half light.

• If there is a primary light source, place it on the seam. This will bal-

ance the light between the hemispheres and keep overexposure to a 
minimum.

• Always use the Exposure Lock setting to capture equal lighting 

between hemisphere pictures. 

• To even out the lighting on sunny days, blinds or curtains should be 

closed and all room lights turned on.

• Do not turn on the flash function.
