BNotes on Vibration Reduction

After the power is turned on or the camera enters shooting mode from playback mode, wait until the display stabilizes before shooting.

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

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

When the Night landscape or Night portrait scene mode is set to Tripod, vibration reduction is turned Off.
