Selecting the shooting mode
• [Sweep Panorama] or [3D Sweep Panorama] recording may be discontinued in the
following situations:
– You pan or tilt the camera too fast or too slow.
– There is too much camera shake.
• The camera continues shooting during [Sweep Panorama] or [3D Sweep Panorama]
recording, and the shutter keeps clicking until the end of the shooting.
• [Auto Port. Framing] and the zoom feature of the camera (ZOOM) cannot be used.
Tips for shooting a panoramic image
• In Sweep Panorama or 3D Sweep Panorama, it is recommended that you
use a wide-angle lens.
• When you use a lens that has a long focal length, pan or tilt the camera
more slowly than when you use a wide-angle lens.
• Determine the scene and press the shutter button halfway, so that you can
lock the focus, exposure, and white balance.
• If a section with greatly varied shapes or scenery is concentrated along a
screen edge, the image composition may fail. In such cases, adjust the
frame composition so that the section is in the center of the image, then
shoot again.
3D-images
Using the same operation as that for Sweep Panorama, the camera records
multiple images and combines them to create a 3D-image.
You can view these 3D images using a 3D-compatible TV. For details on
3D-shooting, see page 206.
To change the image size
You can select the image size: MENU button t 1 t [Panorama:
Size] or [3D Pan.: Image Size].
Pan or tilt the camera in an arc with a
constant velocity and in the same
direction as the indication on the screen.
[Sweep Panorama] or [3D Sweep
Panorama] is better suited for still
subjects, rather than moving ones.
