Function Descriptions

[12] Stabilizer

(Only VCC-MD700/800 series)

When this function is set to ON, the digital zoom magnifies the screen. When vibrations are detected, the vibrations are stabilized by changing the position of the screen captured by the zoom.

Stabilizer level and digital zoom magnification When changing the stabilizer level, the magnification of the applied digital zoom is changed. Therefore, increasing the stabilizer level allows the camera to adjust to stronger vibrations. However, the screen resolution decreases.

The relation between the level of stabilization and the digital zoom magnification is as follows.

Stabilizer level

Applicable digital zoom magnification

Low

Approximately x1.05

Middle

Approximately x1.1

High

Approximately x1.2

Frequency that can be stabilized

This function corrects vibrations between 5Hz – 15Hz. However, depending on the strength of the vibration or the stabilizer level, some vibrations within this frequency range may not be stabilized.

To clarify the image when using the stabilizer

To clarify the image when using the stabilizer, set the shutter speed to approximately 1/250.

If the shutter speed is slow, the images captured before the digital zoom is applied will be blurred and the effect of the stabilizer decreased.
