• Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we
recommend using a tripod.
• This mode is most effective when the subject
is 10 m or more away.
• The shutter speed becomes the following.
– When [OFF] is set on the optical image
stabilizer function: Fixed to 2 seconds
– When [MODE1] or [MODE2] is set on the
optical image stabilizer function:
1/4th of a second or 2 seconds (The
shutter speed becomes 2 seconds only
when the camera has determined that
there is little jitter such as when using a
tripod etc.)
– You can change the shutter speed by
compensating the exposure.
