STABILIZER

ON OFF

The Optical Image Stabilizer can compensate for a wide range of camera movement — you can record stable images even if you are shooting from a moving car.

Before you start recording, slide the STABILIZER switch on the video lens to turn the image stabilizer on or off.

Notes:

•The image stabilizer is designed to deal with a normal degree of camera shake.

•Keep the image stabilizer turned off when the camera is mounted on a tripod.

•	Sliding the switch to OFF has no effect when the camera is set to the [ Easy Recording program.
•	The image stabilizer is not as effective as usual when the Extender XL 1.6⋅ (optional) is attached.
