Canon 430 Guia Do Utilizador

Stitch Assist can be used to shoot overlapping images that can later be 
merged (stitched) to create one panoramic image on a computer.

To merge the images on a computer, use PhotoStitch, one of the 
supplied programs.

The PhotoStitch program detects the overlapping portions of adjoining 
images and merges them. When shooting, try to include a distinctive item 
(landmark) in the overlapping portions.

• Compose each frame so that it overlaps 30 - 50% of the adjoining image. Try 

to keep the vertical misalignment to less than 10% of the image height.

• Do not include moving items in the overlap.
• Do not try to stitch images that include both distant and close items. 

These items may appear warped or doubled up in the merged image.

• Make the brightness in each image consistent. The final image will appear 

unnatural if the contrast in brightness is too great.

• To shoot landscapes, swivel (pan) the camera around its own vertical axis.

The overlapping seams of 
several adjacent images 
can be joined into a single 
panoramic image.
