Taking Pictures Using the Shake Reduction Function

“Camera shake” occurs when you jiggle your hands while taking pictures. “Blurring” is likely to occur when you take pictures of moving subject. This camera features image compensation systems and functions that work for both “camera shake” and “blurring”. Enjoy taking still pictures and movies without worrying about image blur.
