Quick Setup Checklist: Photos Look Too Dark or Too Bright

When to Turn HDR ON

Turn HDR ON if:

  • The room is dark

  • There are bright windows and dark corners

  • The lighting is uneven (mixed light sources)

HDR helps brighten dark areas and balance lighting.
Note: Photos will take a little longer to capture.
Note: HDR is only available in Single Shot Mode.

When to Turn HDR OFF

Turn HDR OFF if:

  • The room is already well-lit

  • Photos look “washed out” or too bright

  • You are shooting outdoors in full daylight

If photos look overly bright or hazy, try turning HDR off and retake one test image.

Stitching Issues (Rooms Not Connecting Properly)

If rooms are not stitching together correctly:

  • Tap on the images to check and validate.

  • If the images aren’t stitching (In fish-eye format), toggle the camera mode to photo mode.

  • Re-shoot the area if possible.

Note: The camera may toggle to video mode each after each shot. Toggle the mode back to Photo mode on the camera’s LED Touch Screen.
