B 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 display stabilizes before shooting. • Due to characteristics of the vibration reduction function, images displayed on the camera's monitor immediately after shooting may appear blurry. • Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shake in some situations. • When set to On (hybrid), electronic vibration reduction may not reduce the effects of camera shake if the amount of vibration is very small or very large. • When set to On (hybrid), electronic vibration reduction does not function if shutter speed is fast or very slow. • When set to On (hybrid), the camera automatically releases the shutter two times for each shot and processes the image, therefore it takes more time to save captured images. The Shutter sound (A 115) will be heard only once. Only one image is saved. D Using Vibration Reduction with Movies Vibration reduction for movie recording can be set with Electronic VR (A 85) in the movie menu (A 82). 113

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 display stabilizes before shooting.
•
Due to characteristics of the vibration reduction function, images displayed on the camera’s
monitor immediately after shooting may appear blurry.
•
Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shake in some situations.
•
When set to
On (hybrid)
, electronic vibration reduction may not reduce the effects of camera
shake if the amount of vibration is very small or very large.
•
When set to
On (hybrid)
, electronic vibration reduction does not function if shutter speed is fast
or very slow.
•
When set to
On (hybrid)
, the camera automatically releases the shutter two times for each shot
and processes the image, therefore it takes more time to save captured images. The
