Panorama: IPhone X

IPhone X

I especially enjoy discovering things and trying to figure them out, especially creative things. The Iphone X has a new photo feature I hadn’t seen before (the Iphone 8 also has it, it’s called a “pano” photograph, it takes wide-angle panorama shots.

I set the photo to “pano’ and a line appears with an arrow next to it. You move the camera along a wide and long long and keep the arrow in the middle of the line. I went from the pole barn in a nearly complete 2=360 degree circle behind me, where the donkeys were feeding.

The normal photo range would have been from Red to the sheep feeder, not all the way around to the donkeys. This opens up some new and creative possibilities for me, even a wide-angle standard lens can’t cover that wide of an angle.

The shot even caught Gus on the far right, he was watching Maria on the other side of the fence. I will have to figure out how to use this feature.
