Taking panoramic pictures

Use panorama to “stitch” up to 3 pictures into a panoramic scene.

NOTE: For best results, use a tripod. Individual pictures are saved only when panorama capture is cancelled before stitching occurs. (Picture size is set to 3.1 MP for each picture. Exposure and white balance are set with the first picture. The flash is set to Off.)

1Turn the Mode dial to SCN.

2Move the Joystick to highlight Panorama Left-Right or Panorama Right-Left (depending on the direction you want to pan), then press the OK button.

3Take the first picture.

After a quickview, the EVF/LCD displays the liveview and an “overlay” from the first picture.

4Compose the second picture. Make the overlay from the first picture cover the same portion in the new picture. (You may press the Delete button to delete each panorama picture you took.)

5If you are taking only 2 pictures, press the OK button to stitch them together. After you take 3 pictures, the pictures are automatically stitched together.
