Tips on shooting panoramic photos

Sweep the camcorder around you at slow and steady speed (about 5 seconds for 180 degrees). A message will alert you if the speed is too high or too low. It is recommended that you practice the sweeping movement in advance before you take a panoramic photo.
  • For taking a good panoramic photo, it is also important to keep sufficient distance between the subject and the background or to shoot in bright places such as outdoors.
