2.Getting Started/Basic Operations

Optical Image Stabilizer

The camera detects jitter during recording and automatically corrects it, so you can record images with reduced jitter.

A lens which supports the stabilizer function is required.

The interchangeable lens (H-HS12035/H-FS14140) supports the stabilizer function.

When using an interchangeable lens with O.I.S. switch (such as H-HS12035), stabilizer

function is activated if the O.I.S. switch of the lens is set to [ON]. ([ ] is set at the time of purchase)

Setting the Stabilizer in the [Rec] menu 1 Select the menu. (P54)

This mode is ideal for panning (a method of taking

pictures which involves turning the camera to track the

([Panning])

movements of a subject which continues to move in a

 

 

 

 

fixed direction).

 

 

 

[OFF]

[Stabilizer] does not work.

(This can be selected only when using a lens without the [O.I.S.] switch.)

 

 

The [Stabilizer] feature is only available if the lens you are using has an internal stabilizer.

Exit the menu after it is set.

Preventing jitter (camera shake)

When the jitter alert [ ] appears, use [Stabilizer], a tripod or the self-timer (P118).

Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen.

We recommend using a tripod.
