•
The Optical Image Stabiliser may produce operational sound or cause vibration during
its operation, but these are not malfunctions.
•
When using an optional interchangeable lens with an O.I.S. switch, it is possible to set to
enable the Optical Image Stabiliser by switching the O.I.S. switch on the lens to [ON]. (At the
time of purchase, it is initially set to [
].)
•
When a tripod is used, we recommended that [Operation Mode] be set to [OFF].

We recommend taking pictures with the viewfinder when panning in [
