Using Easy Panorama (Shooting and Playback)
Reference Section
4 Move the camera slowly and straight in one of
the four directions, and begin shooting.
• When the camera detects which direction it is moving
in, shooting begins.
• A guide indicating the current shooting position is
displayed.
• When the shooting position guide reaches the edge,
shooting ends.
Example of camera movement
• The operator, without shifting position, moves the camera horizontally or
vertically in an arc so that the guide travels from one edge to the other.
• Shooting stops if the guide does not reach the edge within about 15 seconds
(when Normal (180°) is selected) or within about 30 seconds (when Wide
(360°) is selected) after shooting starts.
B Notes About Easy Panorama Shooting
• The range of the image seen in the saved image will be narrower than that seen in the monitor at
the time of shooting.
• If the camera is moved too quickly or shaken too much, or if the subject is too uniform (e.g. walls or
darkness), an error may occur.
• If shooting is stopped before the camera reaches the half-way point in the panorama range, a
panorama image is not saved.
• If more than half of the panorama range is captured but shooting ends before reaching the edge
of the range, the range not captured is recorded and displayed in gray.
