Shooting Panoramic Images (Stitch Assist)
Stitch Assist can be used to shoot overlapping images that can later be
merged (stitched) to create one panoramic image on a computer.
To merge the images on a computer, use PhotoStitch, one of the
supplied programs.
Framing a Subject
The PhotoStitch program detects the overlapping portions of adjoining
images and merges them. When shooting, try to include a distinctive item
(landmark) in the overlapping portions.
• Compose each frame so that it overlaps 30 – 50% of the adjoining image. Try
to keep the vertical misalignment to less than 10% of the image height.
• Do not include moving items in the overlap.
• Do not try to stitch images that include both distant and close items.
These items may appear warped or doubled up in the merged image.
• Make the brightness in each image consistent. The final image will appear
unnatural if the contrast in brightness is too great.
• To shoot landscapes, swivel (pan) the camera around its own vertical axis.
• To shoot close-ups, slide the camera over the subject, keeping it parallel to
the subject as you move it.
Shooting Mode
The overlapping seams of
several adjacent images
can be joined into a single
panoramic image.
