#Cautions
•The image stabilizer cannot correct excessive camera shake or camera shake that occurs when the shutter speed is set to the slowest speed. In these cases, it is recommended that you use a tripod.
•When using a tripod, set [Image Stabilizer] to [OFF].
•When using a lens with an image stabilization function, turn off the image stabilizer function of either the lens or the camera.
•You may notice an operating sound or vibration when the image stabilizer is activated.
•The image stabilizer will not activate at shutter speeds of over 2 seconds.
