5. Portrait works better because it carptures more detail and has more pixels (vertical).

8. Take as many photos as it takes to covert your start to end point.

9. Take extra photos at exposures above and below your original. Keep the camera as level as possible. Look at the aperture and shutter speed setting suggested by the camera, but use the settings that are in the middle or slightly darker- anything that will maintain detail. Manual metering- manual mode. Be careful with movement. Don't be afraid to make more than one pass at different angles Remember vertical panoramas.
