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. 112 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.
