BNotes on Vibration Reduction

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 image of the monitor stabilizes before shooting.

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 the Night landscape or Night portrait scene modes are set to Tripod, vibration reduction is turned off.

When recording HS movies, vibration reduction cannot be used.

When On (hybrid) is selected, electronic vibration reduction may not be able to correct the image if vibrations are very small or very large.

When On (hybrid) is selected, electronic vibration reduction is disabled if shutter speed is fast or very slow.

When electronic vibration reduction is operating while On (hybrid) is selected, the shutter is released twice for each shot and then the image is corrected, therefore more time is needed to save images. The Shutter sound (A183) is heard only once. One image is saved.
