Sweep Panorama

Allows you to create a panoramic image from composed images.

1 Set the mode dial to (Sweep Panorama).

2 Point the camera at the edge of the subject, then

press the shutter button fully down.

3 Pan the camera to the end, following the

guidance on the LCD screen.

• 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.

• Under low light conditions, panoramic images may be blurred.

• Under lights that flicker such as fluorescent light, the brightness or color of the combined image is not

always the same.

• When the whole angle of panoramic shooting and the angle in which you fixed the focus and exposure

with AE/AF lock are extremely different in brightness, color and focus, the shooting will not be

successful. If this happens, change the lock angle and shoot again.

• Sweep Panorama is not suitable for the following situations:

– Objects are moving

– Objects are too close to the camera

– Image with a repeating pattern such as tiles and image with little contrast such as sky, sandy beach, or

lawn

– Image with constant change such as waves or water falls

– Image with the sun or electric lights, etc. that are much brighter than surroundings

• You cannot create panoramic images in the following situations:

– You pan the camera too fast or too slow

– There is too much camera shake
