Notes
•If you cannot pan the camera across the entire subject within the given time, a gray area occurs in the composed image. If this happens, move the camera fast to record a full panoramic image.
•Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part will not be recorded smoothly.
•You cannot create panoramic images in the following situations:
–You pan the camera too fast or too slow
–There is too much camera shake
–You pan the camera in a different direction from the setting
•Under low light conditions, panoramic images may be blurred.
