Hints for taking panoramic shots

• In [COMBINE IN CAMERA] the previous picture remains in the frame to help position your next shot.

Compose the shot so that the edges of the previous picture in the frame overlap with the next shot.

• In [COMBINE IN PC] the previous picture for positioning does not remain. Remember the frame

displayed on the monitor as a rough indication, then compose the shot so that the edges of the

previous picture in the frame overlap with the next shot.

• Focus, exposure, WB and zoom are locked at the first frame.
