High-distortion wide-angle lenses may fail to produce the desired
results. An error message will be displayed if the camera is panned too
quickly or unsteadily.
The completed panorama will be slightly smaller than the area visible
in the display during shooting. No panorama will be recorded if shoot-
ing ends before the halfway point; if shooting ends after the halfway
point but before the panorama is complete, the unrecorded portion
will be shown in gray.
