Vibration Reduction
Select the vibration reduction option for shooting.
Vibration reduction reduces blur, caused by slight hand movement known as
camera shake, which commonly occurs when shooting with telephoto zoom or at
slow shutter speeds. The effects of camera shake are reduced when recording
movies, in addition to when taking still images.
Set
Vibration reduction to Off when using a tripod to stabilize the camera
during shooting.
The current vibration reduction setting can be confirmed in the camera monitor
during shooting (
A
6). When Off is selected, no icon is displayed.

Notes About Vibration Reduction
•
Vibration reduction may take a few seconds to activate after the power is turned on, or the camera
enters shooting mode from playback mode. Wait until the image of the monitor stabilizes before
shooting.
•
Due to characteristics of the vibration reduction function, images displayed in the camera’s
monitor immediately after shooting may be displayed blurry.
•
Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shake in some
situations.
•
Image processing with electronic vibration reduction may not perform as expected with very
slight or extreme camera shake, even when
On (hybrid) is selected.
•
Image processing with electronic vibration reduction is not enabled at fast or extremely slow
shutter speeds, even when
On (hybrid) is selected.
•
When On (hybrid) is selected and electronic vibration reduction is activated, the shutter is
automatically released twice when an image is taken to allow for image processing. Therefore, the
time required to record images increases.
Shutter sound (
E
60) can be heard only when the
shutter is released the first time and a single image will be recorded.

O n ( hyb r id )
The effects of camera shake are reduced optically using a lens-
shift method. Additional image processing with electronic
vibration reduction is applied to further reduce the effects of
camera shake with recording of still images taken under the
following conditions:
• When flash is disabled.
• When a shutter speed slower than 1/60 seconds is used.
• When
Self-timer is disabled.
• When Single is selected for the Continuous setting.
• When ISO sensitivity is set to 200 or less.
