Shooting a Panorama Image (Slide Panorama)

With Slide Panorama, you move the camera to compose and record multiple images, which are then combined to a panorama. This feature lets you shoot a panorama of up to 360 degrees, which is dramatically greater than the physical capabilities of the lens.

•The final panorama image can be one of the two sizes shown below. Slide Direction is Right or Left: Maximum 11520x1080 pixels Slide Direction is Up or Down: Maximum 1920x7296 pixels

•Zoom operations are not supporting during Slide Panorama shooting. The zoom setting is fixed at full wide angle.

•You can use Slide Panorama to shoot a horizontal image up to approximately 360 degrees and a vertical image up to approximately 180 degrees.

If you shoot a horizontal Slide Panorama image that is less than 360 degrees, the image size will become 60, 120, 180, 240, or 300 degrees.
