z Tips for shooting a panoramic image
Pan the camera in an arc with a constant velocity and in the same direction as the indication
on the LCD screen. Sweep Panorama is better suited for still subjects, rather than moving
ones.
• Determine the scene and press the shutter button halfway, so that you can lock the focus exposure
and white balance.
• Adjust the frame composition so that a portion with greatly varied scenery is in the center of the
image.
