Underwater iSweep Panorama

When using Underwater iSweep Panorama, white balance is suited for shooting in underwater. Allows you to create a panoramic image from composite images. The camera also automatically detects people’s faces or moving subjects. Make any necessary settings that are set using the touch panel before using the camera underwater.

Set to the shooting mode.

(REC Mode) (Panorama Shooting Scene) (Underwater iSweep Panorama)

Align the camera with the end of the subject to be shot and press the shutter button fully.

A: This part will not be recorded.

Touch B to change the shooting direction. Make any necessary settings that are set using the touch panel before using the camera underwater.

Pan the camera to the end of the guide (C), following the indication on the screen.

Notes

If you cannot pan the camera across the entire subject within the given time, a gray area occurs in the composite image. If this happens, move the camera faster to record a full panorama image.

Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part will not be recorded smoothly.

Under low light conditions, panorama images may be blurred or the shooting may not be successful.

Under lights that flicker, such as fluorescent lights, the brightness or color of the combined images may not be consistent.

When the whole angle of panoramic shooting and the AE/AF locked angle are very different in brightness, color and focus, shooting will not be successful. If this happens, change the AE/AF locked angle and shoot again.

You cannot create panorama images in the following situations:

You pan the camera too quickly or too slowly.

There is too much camera shake.
