    motion is not detected. In these case the r indicator 
    is not displayed.E68

    (7 ft 3 in.) at the maximum wide-angle position and 
    about 1.4 m (4 ft 7 in.) at the maximum telephoto 
    position.

    BNotes About Easy Panorama Shooting
    •The range of the image seen in the saved image will be narrower than that seen in the monitor at 
    the time of shooting.
    •If the camera is moved too quickly, if the camera is shaken too much, or if the subject has little 
    variance in appearance (such as a wall or in darkness), an error will occur.
    •If shooting is stopped before the camera reaches the half-way point in the panorama range, a 
    panorama image is not saved.
    •If more than half of the panorama range is captured but shooting ends before reaching the edge 
    of the range, the range not captured is recorded and displayed in gray.
