I was playing with the different modes and I took a panorama shot which worked great. When I downloaded it to my phone though it seems it is smaller than the standard single shot mode even with 9 pictures stitched together. I am wondering if either I have done something wrong or if not...... Why would you bother using panorama and generating a small picture than taking a single still??
