Example of camera movement

The operator, without shifting position, moves the camera horizontally or vertically in an arc so that the guide travels from one edge to the other.

Shooting stops if the guide does not reach the edge within about 15 seconds (when Normal (180°) is selected) or within about 30 seconds (when Wide (360°) is selected) after shooting starts.

BNotes About Easy Panorama Shooting

The range of the image seen in the saved image will be narrower than that seen in the monitor at the time of shooting.

If the camera is moved too quickly or shaken too much, or if the subject is too uniform (e.g. walls or darkness), an error may occur.

If shooting is stopped before the camera reaches the half-way point in the panorama range, a panorama image is not saved.

If more than half of the panorama range is captured but shooting ends before reaching the edge of the range, the range not captured is recorded and displayed in gray.
