Using live view
You can enjoy panorama shooting easily using the OLYMPUS xD-Picture Card. Using
OLYMPUS Master (provided CD-ROM) to join a few images shot where the subject’s edges
overlap, you can create a single panorama composite image.
Panorama shooting is possible up to a maximum of 10 images.
• Try your best to include the common parts of the overlapping images when shooting the
subject.

• Shoot while changing the composition such that the subject
overlaps.
• The focus, exposure, etc. will be determined at the first shot.
• The
g (warning) mark will be displayed after you have finished taking 10 shots.
• Pressing the i button before shooting the first frame returns to the scene mode selection
menu.

and allows you to continue with the next one.

Notes
• Panorama shooting cannot be done if the OLYMPUS xD-Picture Card is not loaded in the
camera.
• During panorama shooting, the image previously taken for position alignment will not be
retained. With the frames or other markers for display in the images as a guide, set the
composition such that the edges of the overlapping images overlap within the frames.
