## Prepare before the customer or crew arrives

Practical handling and framing habits that protect exposed lenses and reduce visible stitch-line problems.

A short written checklist protects both the product and the schedule. Complete basic inspection, charging and compatibility work before the first important use.

- Clean both lenses with suitable lens tools.
- Inspect guards, mounts and selfie-stick alignment.
- Choose an open test scene before a critical shot.

## Use a repeatable workflow

Consistency makes results easier to evaluate and problems easier to isolate. Change one variable at a time and keep original files or inventory records until the outcome is confirmed.

- Keep important subjects away from the stitch line.
- Hold or mount the camera vertically when the workflow requires it.
- Review a reframed export, not only the raw preview.

## Common mistakes to avoid

Most avoidable problems come from mismatched accessories, skipped preparation or unclear handling—not from the headline specification.

- Never rest exposed lenses on a hard surface.
- Avoid placing close subjects across the lens seam.
- Do not discard original 360 files before final export.
