≥When zooming in on the subject with a magnification of 4k or higher, it is difficult to reduce the slight shaking from holding this unit by hand. We recommend decreasing the zoom magnification and approaching the subject when recording.

≥When recording still pictures, hold the unit firmly with your hands and keep your arms stationary at your side so as not to shake the unit.

≥You can record stable pictures without shaking by using a tripod and the remote control.
