Vibration Reduction

dbutton Mzmenu icon MVibration reduction Mkbutton

You can select the vibration reduction setting used when shooting. Vibration reduction allows you to reduce the effects of camera shake, which commonly occurs when shooting with zoom applied or when shooting at slow shutter speeds. The effects of camera shake are reduced when recording movies, in addition to when shooting still images.

Set Vibration reduction to Off when shooting using a tripod to stabilize the camera.

B Notes About Vibration Reduction

After turning on the camera or after switching from playback mode to shooting mode, wait for the shooting mode screen to be displayed completely before taking pictures.

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

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

When camera shake is extremely high or low, images may not be corrected even when this feature is set to On (hybrid).

When the shutter speed is fast or extremely slow, images may not be corrected even when this feature is set to On (hybrid).

When this feature is set to On (hybrid) and images are corrected, it takes more time than normal

to save images. This is because when you take a picture, the shutter is released twice automatically in order to correct the image. Shutter sound (E70) is heard only once. One image is saved.
