A digital camera and a method for aligning digital images comprising: receiving images including first and second images depicting a first and a second region of a scene, the regions being overlapping and displaced along a first direction; aligning the images using a transformation; determining disparity values for an overlap between the images; identifying misalignments by identifying blocks of pixels in the first image having a same position along a second direction and having disparity values exhibiting a variability lower than a first threshold and exhibiting an average higher than a second threshold; adjusting the transformation for the identified blocks of pixels in the first image and their matching blocks of pixels in the second image; and realigning the images using the adjusted transformation.
