Capture Mode: Single Shot
TABLE OF CONTENTS
We recommend using Single Shot Mode only when you require a single, high resolution photo of a small area. Here's why:
- Single Shot requires you to manually place the photo on the reference plan in the Capture App.
- Take a single photo in HDR* with a tripod.
(* = Only available with Ricoh Theta Z1 360° camera.)
Capture Rules
General rules for a successful single photo capture:
- Maintain good lighting and clear FOV (Field Of View).
- Keep the camera still when taking photos.
