When the shutter speed is slower than 1/60 second (at the maximum wide-angle position) or 1/125 second (at the maximum telephoto position)

When Self-timeris disabled

When Continuous is set to Single

BNotes on Vibration Reduction

Basic Camera Setup

Vibration reduction may take a few seconds to activate after the power is turned on, or the camera enters shooting mode from playback mode. Wait until the display stabilizes before shooting.

Due to characteristics of the vibration reduction function, images displayed on the camera’s monitor immediately after shooting may appear blurry.

Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shake in some situations.

When set to On (hybrid), electronic vibration reduction may not reduce the effects of camera shake if the amount of vibration is very small or very large.

When set to On (hybrid), electronic vibration reduction does not function if shutter speed is fast or very slow.

When set to On (hybrid), the camera automatically releases the shutter two times for each shot

and processes the image, therefore it takes more time to save captured images. The Shutter sound (A 115) will be heard only once. Only one image is saved.

D Using Vibration Reduction with Movies

Vibration reduction for movie recording can be set with Electronic VR (A 85) in the movie menu

 

(A 82).
