- Q2
- Why can't I shoot Slide Panorama image?
- A2
- The following can result in an error message and interruption of image recording.
• Subject or camera movement
• Camera movement that is too fast or too slow
• Moving the camera in a direction that is different from the specified direction
• Positioning the monitor screen panel at an angle to the lens unit
• Pointing the lens towards yourself
Also, any of the following can cause poor Slide Panorama results.
• Shooting a Slide Panorama image after half-pressing the shutter button to perform Auto Focus may not produce the desired result if there are considerable differences in the brightness, color, and/or focus of the individual images. If this happens, try changing the focus position by focusing on a different subject, etc. • Since a Slide Panorama image is created by joining multiple images together, there may be some roughness at the point where two images are joined. • Shooting under a flickering light source (such as fluorescent lighting) may result in uneven brightness and/or coloring in the final Slide Panorama image or may make shooting impossible.
The following conditions are not compatible with Slide Panorama shooting.
- Subject whose brightness is very different from that of its surroundings due to artificial light, sunlight, etc. - Rivers, waves, waterfalls, or other subject with constantly changing patterns - Sky, beach, or other subject with continuous patterns - Camera too close to the main subject - Moving subject - Dark surroundings
