4 Move the camera in one of the four directions until the guide indicator reaches the end. • When the camera detects which direction it is moving in, shooting begins. • Shooting ends when the camera captures the specified shooting range. • Focus and exposure are locked until shooting ends. Guide Example of Camera Movement • Using your body as the axis of rotation, move the camera slowly in an arc, in the direction of the marking (KLJI). • Shooting stops if the guide does not reach the edge within about 15 seconds (when Normal is selected) or within about 30 seconds (when Wide is selected) after shooting starts. B Notes About Easy Panorama Shooting • The range of the image seen in the saved image is 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.
