Sony a6400 - panoramic problem

[holardshwallet]

My first a series camera. Looking for some help when taking panoramic shots. The exposure is so dark although my exposure and iso settings are ok with other shots. Is there a seperate adjustemnt for panoramics? Thanks in advance.

If I remember correctly, the exposure depends on where you start the panorama (or actually, the scene where you initiate focus acquisition). After that, focus and exposure are locked. If the rest of the panoramic scene is darker, most of your panorama will be under-exposed. Best to half-press the shutter button in a scene with moderate lighting and object distance, then point the camera to the start of the panorama and full-press the shutter button.

If you have a scene with high dynamic range, some of your panorama will be over-/underexposed. In such a case it might be better to stitch the panorama in post so you can utilize the exposure latitude of the RAW files.

Hi Pieter Thanks for your comments, makes sense will try your suggestion next time I'm doing a panoramic.
