Step 1: Set the Auto Exposure Lock
Turn on the Auto Exposure (AE) Lock to capture equal lighting between
two hemisphere images. The first picture you take using the AE Lock in a
pair of hemisphere images will establish the exposure for both the front
and back hemispheres. Using AE Lock automatically disables the flash.
Always remember to reset the exposure lock before every pair of hemi-
spheres. If your hemisphere images appear dark, try resetting the AE lock
and retaking your images.
