Shooting in Stitch Assist Mode
Stitch Assist mode can be used to shoot images, which overlap, and
which can later be merged to create one panoramic image on a
computer.
To merge the images on the 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.
The overlapping seams of
several adjacent images can
be joined into a single
panoramic image.
