Shooting in Anti-shake Mode
In anti-shake mode, vibration reduction (
107) and BSS (
88) are
enabled. In addition, ISO sensitivity is automatically raised to 1600 depending
upon the brightness of the subject and shutter speed is faster than with
L
(auto) mode, under the same lighting conditions, to reduce blurring caused
by camera shake or subject movement. The flash is disabled. This mode is
most effective when shooting under natural light. Combine it with telephoto
zoom when you are forced to shoot from a distance in order to capture a
fleeting expression on a portrait subject or to photograph an animal without
frightening it off.
