What is the Stitch Function?
•Stitching is the process of merging digital camera images so that the seams are invisible. Expansive scenes can be dynamically presented in their entirety.
How to Frame a Subject
The stitch function detects the overlapping portions of adjoining images and merges them. When shooting, try to include a distinctive item in the overlapping portion.
•Compose each frame so that it overlaps 30% to 50% of the width of the adjoining image. Try to keep any vertical misalignment to within 10% of the image height.
•Do not include moving items in the overlap.
•Do not try to stitch images that include both distant and close items. Objects may appear warped or doubled up.
•Make the brightness as consistent as possible. The final image will appear unnatural if the difference in brightness is too large.
Camera Positioning
Landscapes
To record distant landscapes, pan the camera (tilt or swivel the camera on its own axis).
For a horizontal series, swivel the camera left or right.
