Using the Stabilizer
The Stabilizer function works according to the luminance of the target object. This function uses special
image data processing for getting high sensitivity of CCD. High sensitivity can use higher shutter speed
compared with normal mode, so it reduces influence of hand shaking. Press the stabilizer button before
pressing the Shutter button.
