Sweep Panorama

-
Set the mode dial to
(Sweep Panorama).
-
Align the camera with the end of the subject to be shot and press the shutter button fully.

-
Pan the camera to the end of the guide (B), following the indicator on the screen.



-
First press the shutter button halfway so that you can lock the focus and exposure. Then press the shutter button fully down and pan or tilt the camera.
-
If a section with greatly varied shapes or scenery is concentrated along a screen edge, the image composition may fail. In such a case, adjust the frame composition so that the section is in the center of the image, then shoot again.
-
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 panoramic image.
-
When shooting subjects with little contrast, such as the sky or ocean, shooting may stop.
-
Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part will not be recorded smoothly.
-
When the whole angle of panoramic shooting and the AE/AF locked angle are very different in brightness, color and focus, the shooting will not be successful. If this happens, change the AE/AF locked angle and shoot again.
-
You cannot create panoramic images in the following situations:
-
You pan the camera too quickly or too slowly.
-
There is too much camera shake.
