• A panorama may include up to 10 images. A warning indicator ( g) is displayed after
the tenth shot.
6
After taking the last shot, press Q to end the series.
# Cautions
• During panorama shooting, the image previously taken for position alignment will not be
displayed. With the frames or other markers for display in the images as a guide, set the
composition such that the edges of the overlapping images overlap within the frames.
$ Notes
• Pressing Q before shooting the fi rst frame returns to the scene mode selection menu.
Pressing Q in the midst of shooting ends the sequence of panorama shooting, and allows
you to continue with the next one.
