Tips

 

• Pan the camera in the recording direction as steadily as possible.

If the camera shakes too 

much, it may not be able to 

take pictures or may end up 

creating a narrow (small) 

panorama picture.

The subjects that are displayed in this range are recorded. (guideline)

Notes

 

• The zoom position is fixed to the W end.

 

• The focus, White Balance, and Exposure Compensation are all fixed to 

optimal values for the first picture. 

If the focusing or brightness of pictures recorded as part of a Panorama 

picture after the first picture are significantly different from those of the first 

picture, the Panorama picture as a whole (when all pictures are stitched 

together) may not have consistent focus and brightness.

 

• The following functions are fixed to the settings indicated below.

[Stabilizer]: [OFF]    [Date Stamp]: [OFF]

 

• Since several pictures are stitched together to create a Panorama picture, 

some subjects may be distorted or the joining portions of successively taken 

pictures that are stitched may be noticeable.

 

• The number of recording pixels per horizontal line and vertical line of a 

Panorama picture varies depending on the recording direction and number of 

stitched pictures.

The maximum number of recording pixels is as follows:

- Taking pictures in landscape orientation: Approx. 8000 x 1080

- Taking pictures in portrait orientation: Approx. 1440 x 8000

 

• Panorama pictures may not be created or pictures may not be recorded 

properly when taking pictures of the following subjects or when taking pictures 

in the following recording conditions:

-  Subjects that have a continuous monotone or pattern (sky, beach, etc.)

-  Moving subjects (person, pet, vehicle, waves, or flowers swaying in the wind, 

etc.)

-  Subjects whose colours or patterns change quickly (such as an image 

appearing on a display)

- Dark locations

-  Locations with a flickering light source (fluorescent lamp, candle light, etc.)

 About panorama playback

You can operate the zoom lever or perform touch operations to enlarge still 

pictures taken in [Panorama Shot] scene mode in the same way as with other 

still pictures. If you play back panorama pictures in the same way as playing 

back a motion picture, the panorama pictures are scrolled automatically. (

• Unlike motion picture playback, you cannot perform fast forward or fast rewind 

while the panorama pictures are scrolling automatically. (You can perform 

single-frame forward or rewind while the automatic scrolling operation is 

paused.)
