Have seen this option show up on several reviews where the reviewer played with the camera app. However, this is the first time I've scene anyone show how it works. Up until now I've only scene the Droid X have this function built-in.

Yet another reason to pick this bad boy up when it drops at the end of the month.

Wow that is cool. I was just trying Photo stitch last night on my Evo and it was a PITA trying to line up the next pic. This solves all that.
 
How about the iPhone photo stitchers? The photo looks like this: ~\~~~|~~~|~\. It's messy and obnoxious.
 
Yep. It's pretty good on on the Samsung phones. Not sure if it like it or the Droid implementation better ...

On the droid implementation, don't you have to press the camera shutter button for each picture that goes into the panorama? Seems like having the phone take the picture automatically would lead to less blurry pics.
 
That's pretty sweet. My friend has a Droid X and he showed it to me. I'm glad the Epic will have a similar feature.
 
Heck, I wasn't even NEARLY expecting this feature. This came to me as a complete surprise, so I'm really excited now.
 
From what I have read the Galaxy S line can take up to 8 frames almost 180 degrees for their panorama shot. Anyone with a Galaxy S confirm this? :p

The Droid X only does 6 frames and you have to manually press the button.

edit: I guess you don't have to push the button for the droid x but it does look a little slower compared to the epic

Knowing Samsung, they'll remove the feature altogether and say it's because of the slider keyboard!!!:confused:
