ABSTRACT:
A method for acquiring at least two digital images by means of a digital camera, wherein the digital images are to be stitched into a panoramic image, comprises capturing a first digital image, wherein a first scenery is imaged, determining a relation between the first scenery and a second scenery being viewed by the digital camera, while said second scenery being viewed by the digital camera is changed, analysing the relation between the first scenery and the second scenery being viewed by the digital camera in order to identify an appropriate view to be captured by the digital camera in a second digital image, and indicating to a user that the camera is directed towards an appropriate view for capturing a second digital image.
