Stabilization may not be possible under strong shaking conditions.

When using a tripod, we recommend that you set the Image Stabilizer to
(setting canceled).
You can customize the Image Stabilizer by adjusting the [BLUR AMPLITUDE] and [BLUR
FREQUENCY] settings individually.

Custom Optical Image Stabilizer
When [ON] is selected, the Image Stabilizer works with customized [BLUR AMPLITUDE] and
[BLUR FREQUENCY] settings.

∫
Blur amplitude
You can adjust the performance of camera shake correction according to the level of camera shake
during recording.
Select the menu.
≥
If you set a smaller value, correction performance against minor camera shake will be enhanced.
Even though smaller values allow more effective screen stabilization in situations with minor
camera shake, such as when you are recording from a fixed position, they are less effective for
correcting significant camera shake. We recommend setting a smaller value when you keep
recording the same subject, for example.
≥
If you set a larger value, camera shake of varying degrees ranging from minor to significant will
be corrected in a balanced manner. Although larger values allow you to correct significant camera
shake more effectively, the screen becomes unstable when you are recording from a fixed
position. We recommend that you set a larger value in situations where images are expected to
be quite blurry, such as when recording in an unstable position.
∫
Blur frequency
You can change the target frequency range for camera shake correction to adjust its performance
according to the recording style.

[1]:
This enhances the correction performance against camera shake of varying degrees, ranging
from slow camera shake that falls in the low frequency range to fast and subtle camera shake
that falls in the high frequency range. We recommend that you select this setting when
recording a subject from a fixed position without panning or tilting this unit.
[2]:
This is a standard setting which enhances the correction performance against camera shake
that falls in the average-to-high frequency range. Even while adjusting the position of this
unit, you can keep the resulting motion in the image look natural and maintain the correction
performance.
