The resolution varies depending on the panoramic photo you captured.
In Panorama mode, some shooting options are not available.
The camera may stop shooting due to the shooting composition or the
subject's movement.
In Panorama mode, your camera may not capture the entire last scene if you
stop moving the camera to improve the photo quality. To capture the entire
scene, move your camera slightly beyond the point where you want the
scene to end.
In 3D Panorama mode, your camera may not capture the very beginning or
end of a scene due to the nature of the 3D eect. To capture the entire scene,
move slightly beyond the beginning and end points you want to capture.
Photos captured with the 3D function are saved in JPEG (2D) and MPO (3D)
formats. On your camera's display, you can view only JPEG les.
To view 3D les, connect your camera to a 3D TV or 3D monitor with an
optional HDMI cable. While viewing, wear proper 3D glasses.
Capturing photos in 3D Panorama mode may result in a less pronounced 3D
eect than those captured with a 3D lens. To increase the 3D eect, attach
the optional 3D lens and use 3D mode. (p. 69)
