Tips for taking Sweep Panorama photos (2D) Note these limitations when you take Sweep Panorama photos: • If you cannot pan the phone across the entire subject within the given time, a gray area occurs in the composite image. If this happens, move the camera faster to record a full panorama image. • Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part does not always record smoothly. • Under low light conditions, panorama images can be blurred or of low quality. • Under lights that flicker, such as fluorescent lights, the brightness or color of the combined images may not be consistent. • Sweep Panorama mode is not suitable for the following situations: when subjects are moving or are too close to the camera; when target images offer little contrast, such as photos of skies, sand beaches, or lawns; and when images change constantly, such as waves or waterfalls. • The camera can cancel shooting in the following situations: you pan the camera too quickly; you shake the camera too much; you pan the camera in the reverse direction. 109 This is an Internet version of this publication. © Print only for private use.

Tips for taking Sweep Panorama photos (2D)
Note these limitations when you take Sweep Panorama photos:
•
If you cannot pan the phone across the entire subject within the given time, a gray area
occurs in the composite image. If this happens, move the camera faster to record a full
panorama image.
•
Since several images are stitched together, the stitched part does not always record
smoothly.
•
Under low light conditions, panorama images can be blurred or of low quality.
•
Under lights that flicker, such as fluorescent lights, the brightness or color of the
combined images may not be consistent.
•
Sweep Panorama mode is not suitable for the following situations: when subjects are
moving or are too close to the camera; when target images offer little contrast, such as
photos of skies, sand beaches, or lawns; and when images change constantly, such as
waves or waterfalls.
•
The camera can cancel shooting in the following situations: you pan the camera too
quickly; you shake the camera too much; you pan the camera in the reverse direction.
