Built-in Flash Units

When using the built-in flash on cameras equipped with a built-in flash unit, remove the lens hood to prevent vignetting (shadows created

En where the end of the lens obscures the built-in flash).

Vibration Reduction

Vibration reduction reduces blur caused by camera shake, allowing shutter speeds up to five stops slower than would otherwise be the case (Nikon measurements; effects vary with the photographer and shooting conditions). This increases the range of shutter speeds available and permits hand-held, tripod-free photography in a wide range of situations.

Using the Vibration Reduction ON/OFF Switch

Select ON to enable vibration reduction. Vibration reduction is activated when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, reducing the effects of camera shake for improved framing and focus.

Select OFF to turn vibration reduction off.

Using the Vibration Reduction Mode Switch

The vibration reduction mode switch is used to select the vibration reduction mode when vibration reduction is on.

Select NORMAL to reduce the effects of vibration when photographing from a fixed position and in other situations with comparatively little camera motion.

Select ACTIVE to reduce the effects of vibration when shooting from a moving vehicle, while walking, and in other situations with active camera motion.
