Using Automatic Panorama in Creative mode
Pan up to 180 degrees horizontally or up to 120 degrees vertically. The camera takes several pictures, then "stitches" them into a single, wide image.
Choose the direction of panning
-
Turn the Mode dial to Creative mode .

Press and to highlight Automatic Panorama, then press OK.

Take the picture
For best results, set the lens to wide angle (no zoom). Choose stationary subjects.
-
At your starting point, press the Shutter button halfway down to focus and set the exposure, then press completely down and hold it.
-
Keeping the Shutter button pressed, slowly pan or tilt in the direction you selected.
-
Release the Shutter button when the LCD displays "Processing."
The camera automatically stops recording images when a certain number of pixels is reached. This equates to approximately 180 degrees horizontally or 120 degrees vertically. (You might capture more or less, depending on scene content.)
NOTE: If the scene contains an uninterrupted expanse of similar pixels—such as a plain, white wall—the camera may interpret this as the same group of pixels and abbreviate the wall in the final image.
-
When finished, turn the Mode dial to another mode.
