The DRIVE Dial

Q Panoramas are created from multiple frames; expo-

sure for the entire panorama is determined by the

 rst frame. The camera may in some cases record an

greater or lesser angle than selected or be unable to

stitch the frames together perfectly. The last part of

the panorama may not be recorded if shooting ends

before the panorama is complete.

Q Shooting may be interrupted if the camera is panned

too quickly or too slowly. Panning the camera in a

direction other than that shown cancels shooting.

Q The desired results may not be achieved with mov-

ing subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvary-

ing subjects such as the sky or a  eld of grass, sub-

jects that are in constant motion, such as waves and

waterfalls, or subjects that undergo marked chang-

es in brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the

subject is poorly lit.
