Nikon Camera manual Lens Vibration Reduction VR, Tripod Mode

●Lens Vibration Reduction (VR)

We recommend using VR lenses with the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch in the ON position.

If the lens has a vibration reduction mode switch, choose NORMAL for hand-held photography or when using a mono- pod. Vibration reduction should generally be turned off when the camera is on a tripod, although an exception can be made for a lens such as the AF-S NIKKOR 200mm f/2G ED VR II, which automatically detects tripod vibra- tion. Vibration reduction should also be turned off if you notice shake during filming when panning a camera that is mounted on a tripod.

Tripod Mode

Some lenses, such as the AF-S NIKKOR 400mm f/2.8G ED VR, offer vibration re- duction with a TRIPOD option that is gen- erally recommended when the camera is mounted on a tripod. NORMAL is how- ever preferred if the tripod head is not fi xed or you are using a monopod.
