About real-time stitching and stitching calibration
Insta360 Titan has an accurate stitching parameter which can be used in most shooting scenarios. The stitching effect shown on the preview screen is based on this default stitching parameter. However, the stitching effect may vary due to differences between specific shooting scenes. If the stitching effect doesn't meet the requirement, users can use calibrate the stitching effect on the camera or control app.
Please note that the calibrate stitching only takes effect in the following situations:
Stitching effects shown in the other situations, such as photo using real-time OpticalFlow stitching and the preview screen before shooting, are based on the default stitching parameter.
