Notes on Panorama Assist
• Set the flash mode, self-timer, focus mode and exposure compensation before releasing the
shutter for the first picture. The settings cannot be changed after shooting the first picture. Pictures
cannot be deleted, nor can zoom, Image quality (
A83), or Image size (A84) be adjusted after
shooting the first picture.
• The panorama series is terminated if the auto off function ( A199) triggers the standby mode
during shooting. To prevent this, setting a longer time for the auto off function is recommended.

R (exposure lock) Indicator
When using panorama assist mode, all pictures in the panorama
have the same exposure, white balance, and focus as the first picture
of the panorama.
When the first picture is shot, R is displayed to indicate that
exposure, white balance, and focus are locked.

Panorama Creation
Transfer pictures to a computer ( A174) and use Panorama Maker 5 (A177) to join them in a single
