Notes on 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.
