ENG-9

You can use the image stabilizer in AF or MF 

mode.

This function provides optimal image stabilization 

depending on shooting conditions (such as 

shooting still subjects and following shots).

1

 

Set the STABILIZER switch to ON.

If you are not going to use the image stabilizer 

function, set the switch to OFF. 

2

 

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.

Image Stabilizer

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.

Even with a monopod, the Image Stabilizer will 

be as effective as during hand-held shooting. 

However, depending on the shooting environment, 

the Image Stabilizer effect may be less effective.

The image stabilizer function also operates when the 

lens is used with an Extension Tube EF12 II or EF25 II.

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.

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.
