Panoramas on Sony cameras. For something different and a little bit of fun I do like the panorama feature on Sony cameras. I have been experimenting with Sweep panorama mode on the Sony a7 series, RX100mkIV and RX1RmkII cameras. I think it is a great mode for those fun shoots when you are on holiday and/or …
