Options ( Default value in

mode)

 

[PDynamic] (

mode only) Compensates for a higher

 

 

degree of camcorder shake, such as when shooting while walk-

 

ing, and is more effective as the zoom approaches full wide

 

angle.

 

 

[QStandard], [QOn] Compensates for a lower degree of

 

camcorder shake, such as when shooting while remaining sta-

 

tionary, and is suitable for shooting natural-looking scenes. Use

 

this setting when recording movies with the optional Wide-con-

 

verter or Tele-converter.

 

[jOff] Use this setting when the camcorder is mounted on a tri-

 

pod.

 

 

 

 

Powered IS

When shooting video, you can use Powered IS to make the image stabilization even more powerful. Powered IS is most effective when you are stationary and zooming in on far subjects using high zoom ratios (the more you approach the telephoto end). Holding the LCD panel with your left hand will add to the stability of the shot.

Press and hold Yas long as you want to activate Powered IS.

• Zappears in yellow, while Powered IS is activated.

You can change the operation of the Ybutton (long press or toggle on/off) with the 78 [POWERED IS Button] setting.

NOTES

If the degree of camcorder shake is too high, the image stabilizer may not be able to fully compensate.

Powered IS is not available in mode.

For surveying and following shots, when you pan the camcorder from side to side or tilt it up and down, we recommend setting the IS mode to [PDynamic] or [QStandard].
