Device for generating a panoramic image of a panoramic visual field , the device being configured for: simultaneous capturing of a first set of first individual images which together cover the panoramic visual field , by means of several optical channels of a first camera system ; capturing at least one second individual image by means of one of the several optical channels of the first camera system , so that the at least one second individual image results, together or together with a first individual image captured by the one of the several optical channels, in a second set of individual images which are captured with mutual time offset and which cover the panoramic visual field ; selecting, for at least one image area of the panoramic image, one or more images among a subgroup which is comprised of the first individual images and of the at least one second individual image and which overlaps with the at least one image area; and rendering the panoramic image while using the one or more images within the at least one image area; characterized in that the device is further configured for determining, within a first overlap area, a first difference between a first pair of first individual images which relate to at least one portion of the panoramic visual field and which overlap each other, within the panoramic visual field , within the first overlap area, determining, within a second overlap area, a second difference between a second pair of individual images from the second set of individual images which relate to the portion of the panoramic visual field and which overlap each other, within the panoramic visual field , within the second overlap area, selecting the first pair for rendering the panoramic image within the portion if the first difference is smaller than the second difference, and selecting the second pair for rendering the panoramic image within the portion if the first difference is larger than the second difference. simultaneous capturing of a first set of first individual images which together cover the panoramic visual field , by means of several optical channels of a first camera system ; capturing at least one second individual image by means of one of the several optical channels of the first camera system , so that the at least one second individual image results, together or together with a first individual image captured by the one of the several optical channels, in a second set of individual images which are captured with mutual time offset and which cover the panoramic visual field ; selecting, for at least one image area of the panoramic image, one or more images among a subgroup which is comprised of the first individual images and of the at least one second individual image and which overlaps with the at least one image area; and rendering the panoramic image while using the one or more images within the at least one image area; characterized in that the device is further configured for determining, within a first overlap area, a first difference between a first pair of first individual images which relate to at least one portion of the panoramic visual field and which overlap each other, within the panoramic visual field , within the first overlap area, determining, within a second overlap area, a second difference between a second pair of individual images from the second set of individual images which relate to the portion of the panoramic visual field and which overlap each other, within the panoramic visual field , within the second overlap area, selecting the first pair for rendering the panoramic image within the portion if the first difference is smaller than the second difference, and selecting the second pair for rendering the panoramic image within the portion if the first difference is larger than the second difference. <EOS>
