Vibration reduction mode (Fig. C)

The following cameras are usable:

•35mm SLR cameras: F5, F100, F80-Series/N80-Series, F75-Series/N75-Series, F65-Series/N65-Series

•Digital cameras: D2H, D1-Series and D100

When using the lens with cameras other than those listed above, set the vibration reduction mode switch to OFF to cancel the vibration reduction mode.

With the Pronea 600i/6i camera, in particular, battery power may become depleted quickly if this switch is left ON.

are easier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mode 2

Vibration is reduced only at the instant the shutter is released. In this

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

mode, vibration of the image in the viewfinder is not reduced while the

•In Mode 1 and Mode 2, wait at least one second before fully depressing the shutter release button after lightly pressing the shutter button. In Mode 1, it’s recommended to release the shutter after the image in the viewfinder has stopped vibrating.

•The vibration reduction mechanism reduces camera shake. However, if you move the camera quickly, vibration in the direction of that movement may not be affected. For example, if you pan the camera horizontally, only vibration in the vertical direction is reduced, making smooth pans much easier.

•Characteristic of the vibration reduction mechanism, the image in the viewfinder may blur after releasing the shutter.
