Take Panoramic Pics With Android

A Panoramic picture is a picture with a broader or wider view of your subject. You can take one with your Android phone but settings may vary depending on your version.

Click on your camera icon on your phone. If it's not upfront go into your settings first. Swipe up from the bottom.

Down where the button is that snaps the photo you'll see a series of options, it's probably set to photo but this is a scroll bar and just by swiping left or right to can change these options. In my case I have; HDR, Night, Panorama, Pro, Photo, Video, and Continuous Shot.

HDR (High Dynamic Range): combines multiple exposures for higher quality photos.

Night: Gives you better shots at night.

Panorama: Very wide pictures.

Pro: If you know what your doing with changing the camera settings, like ISO, this is for you. Not for me.

Photo and Video: kind of self explanatory.

Continuous shot: In this mode, holding down on the snap button continuously takes photos until you release the button.

So switch the setting to Panorama, point the camera at your subject. Click on the snap button. Slowly move from the left to the right or from the right to the left depending on your photo.

You'll notice little thumbnails filling up the blocks on the screen.

Click the snap button again when finished. The picture is now in your gallery.

This is were it will come in handy to have a tripod or steady hands, I have neither. Having a better scean would help to. Outdoors; cold, ice, snow, windchill, no thank you. (originally written in the winter) Not even a outdoors person in the summer.

Anyway here's my best attempt so far. Started with my monitors on my desk. Then to my TV on the side. That scean in from theCarol Burnette Show on Youtube. And then to my shelf, notice my half clock ghost. I'm showing you a scaled down version here but the original size is 5024x560 pixels the print size would be approximately 85cm long or 33 inches.

Basically that's how you do it. Hope your pictures are better than mine.
