mode.
This function provides optimal image stabilization
depending on shooting conditions (such as
shooting still subjects and following shots).

When you press the shutter button
halfway, the Image Stabilizer will
start operating.

¡

Make sure the image in the viewfinder is

stable, then press the shutter button the
rest of the way down to take the picture.

The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.

¡

The Image Stabilizer may not be fully effective if
you shoot from a violently shaking vehicle or
other transportation.

¡

The Image Stabilizer consumes more power
than normal shooting, so fewer shots can be
taken if you use the function.

¡

When shooting a still subject, it compensates for
camera shake in all directions.

¡

It compensates for vertical camera shake during
following shots in a horizontal direction, and
compensates for horizontal camera shake
during following shots in a vertical direction.

When you use a tripod, the Image Stabilizer
should be turned off to save battery power.

photography and photography with a monopod.

¡

The image stabilizer function also operates
when the lens is used with an Extension Tube
EF12 ll or EF25 ll.

¡

If you set the camera’s Custom Function to
change the assigned button to operate the AF,
the Image Stabilizer will operate when you press
the newly assigned AF button.
