Why can't I shoot Slide Panorama image?
A19
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
.
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.
Shooting in dark surroundings may result in a blurred image or may make Slide Panorama 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
