Shooting in Stitch Assist Mode

Stitch Assist mode can be used to shoot overlapping images that can later be merged (stitched) to create one panoramic image on a computer.

The overlapping seams of several adjacent images can be joined into a single panoramic image.

To merge the images on a computer, use PhotoStitch, one of the supplied programs.

Framing a Subject

The PhotoStitch program detects the overlapping portions of adjoining images and merges them. When shooting, try to include a distinctive item (landmark) in the overlapping portions.

Compose each frame so that it overlaps 30 - 50% of the adjoining image. Try to keep the vertical misalignment to less than 10% of the image height.

Do not include moving items in the overlap.
