Electronic VR

Select On to enable electronic vibration reduction in Motion Snapshot mode (0 64), when filming movies in auto and creative modes, and when HD movie is selected in advanced movie mode (0 48, but note that electronic VR is not available when 1080/60p or 720/60p is selected for Frame size/frame rate). This feature is available even if the attached 1 NIKKOR lens does not support vibration reduction. Note that there will be a slight delay before recording begins and that the edges of the image will be cropped out when On is selected.
