Shooting – The Basics
Shooting Panoramic Images
(Stitch Assist)
Stitch Assist can be used to shoot
overlapping images that can later be merged
(stitched) to create one panoramic image on
a computer.
There are two stitch assist modes based on the
shooting direction as shown in the following.
Shooting Mode
Left Right
Shoots horizontally from left
to right.
Right Left
Shoots horizontally from
right to left.
To merge the images on a computer, use
PhotoStitch, one of the supplied programs.
Framing a Subject
The PhotoStitch program detects the overlapping
portions of adjoining images and merges them.
When shooting, try to include a distinctive item
(landmark) in the overlapping portions.
z Compose each frame so that it overlaps
30 to 50 % of the adjoining image. Try to
keep the vertical misalignment to within
10 % of the image height.
z Do not include moving items in the
overlap.
z Do not try to stitch images that include
both distant and close items. Objects
may appear warped or doubled up.
