Shooting Setting the Image Stabilizer Function Shooting Mode The lens-shift type image stabilizer function allows you to minimize the camera shake effect (blurred images) when you shoot distant subjects that have been magnified or when you shoot in dark conditions without a flash. Continuous You can check the effect of the IS mode on image blur on the LCD monitor since the IS mode runs continually. This makes it easier to compose images and focus on subjects. Shoot Only IS mode is only activated when the shutter button is pressed. When set to [Continuous], some blurring may occur depending on the subjects. In Shoot Only mode, subjects can be taken without concern for any unnatural movement that may appear on the LCD monitor. This option is not available in the mode. Panning This option only stabilizes the effect of up and down camera motions on the image. This option is recommended for shooting objects moving horizontally. This option is not available in the mode. 1 (Rec.) Menu [IS Mode] [Continuous]*/ [Shoot Only]/[Planning]/[Off]. See Menus and Settings (p. 25). * Default setting. 35
