Instead, select one single WB mode that will be used on all images.<\/li>\n<li>If you do a horizontal panorama, shoot in vertical (portrait) orientation (to increase the usable surface and to improve the final resolution).<\/li>\n<li>Make sure that you have a wide cross-image section to ease the merging process.
