Hidden iOS 5 Panorama Mode Revealed
iOS developer
@conradev revealed on Twitter that he had been able to enable a hidden "Panorama" mode in iOS 5. The setting can reportedly be
enabled by setting 'EnableFirebreak' to YES in com.apple.mobileslideshow.plist. iOS developer
@chpwn has already submitted an app to Cydia to enabled the panorama mode for Jailbroken iPhones.
Clearly Apple had been testing the Panorama mode as a possible feature for iOS 5, but for whatever reason it didn't make the cut into the final release. The user interface shows that a user can capture individual photos from left to right and the software will stitch it together.
Apple did introduce a number of other new features to iOS 5's camera app, including grid lines, pinch to zoom gestures, volume button shutter and editing features.

LOL at myself right now. :D
(Though how cool would that be — an iPhone camera that could capture paranormal activity!)
When it does work, it's blurry as heck. 3rd pic is a good example.
Also worthy of note: The photos are in FULL RESOLUTION. Which means your iPhone 4 is technically capable of near-continuous shooting of 5MP pictures. And yes, this was taken with an iPhone 4.
Last year HDR didn't come to the iPhone until iOS 4.1, so its quite possible that this feature will be released along side iOS 5.1
