7. Press the shutter button the rest of the way
down and slowly move the camera in
accordance with the instructions and arrow
that appear on the monitor screen.
• Holding the camera firmly with both hands, follow
the instructions that appear on the monitor screen
to slowly slide the camera horizontally or vertically
in an arc centered on your body.
– When sliding the camera horizontally, do not
allow your body to move left or right. A vertical
line running through your body should serve as
the axis.
– When sliding the camera vertically, do not allow your body to move upwards
or downwards. A horizontal line between your shoulders should serve as the
axis.
– Take care not to slide the camera diagonally and be sure to maintain a firm
grip on it.
• The camera will start composing the super-wide image internally when the
slide cursor reached the other end of the movement range.
• Image composing also will start automatically if you stop moving the camera
during super-wide shooting. After you stop moving the camera, the message
“Busy... Please wait...” appears as the camera processes the image. Wait until
this message disappears before using the camera. Image shooting is disabled
while the message is displayed.
