ANTI-SHAKE SYSTEM

The Anti-Shake system minimizes the affect of camera shake, a slight blurring caused by subtle hand motion. Camera shake is more pronounced at long focal lengths than short ones. Anti- Shake is less effective with moving subjects or when the camera is panned, shutter speeds of 1/4 second or longer, and short object distances. Anti-shake is disabled with bulb exposures (p. 45).

When the system is active, the Anti-Shake scale in the viewfinder glows; the scale can be turned off in section 3 of the custom menu (p. 98). Anti-Shake can be turned off and on with the Anti-shake switch.

Frame the subject as described in the basic operation section. Press the shutter-release button partway down to focus and set the exposure.

The Anti-Shake scale indicates the degree of stabilization. The more LEDs displayed, the more unstable the image. Confirm the image has stabilized with the scale and press the shutter- release button all the way down to take the picture.

Anti-shake cannot be used with some lenses, see page 117. Turn Anti-Shake off when the camera is mounted on a tripod. The metered exposure may change when turning this function on and off.

The full display uses a scale to show the degree of flash and exposure compensation as well as the metered exposure value in manual exposure. The basic display uses a numerical value.

Turning off the display conserves battery power.
