Jp En De Fr Es Sv Ru Nl It Cz Sk Ck Ch Kr ■ Vibration reduction mode (VRII) Setting the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch ON: The effects of camera shake are reduced while the ON OFF shutter- release button is pressed halfway and also at the instant the shutter is released. Because vibration is reduced in the viewfinder, auto/ manual focusing and exact framing of the subject are easier. OFF: The effects of camera shake are not reduced. Notes on using vibration reduction • By enabling vibration reduction (VR), slower shutter speeds (approximately four stops*) can be used when shooting distance is between and 2.6 m (the reproduction ratio from to 1/30×). The higher the reproduction ratio from 1/30× is, the more the effects of vibration reduction will decrease gradually. (*Based on results achieved under Nikon measurement conditions. The effects of vibration reduction may vary according to shooting conditions and use.) • After pressing the shutter-release button halfway, wait until the image in the viewfinder stabilizes before pressing the shutter-release button the rest of the way down. • Due to the characteristics of the vibration reduction mechanism, the image in the viewfinder may be blurred after the shutter is released. This is not a malfunction. • If the camera is panned in a wide arc, compensation for camera shake in the panning direction is not performed. For example, only the effects of vertical camera shake is reduced with horizontal panning. • Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens from the camera while vibration reduction is operating. Failure to observe this note could result in the lens sounding and feeling as if an internal component is loose or broken when it is shaken. This is not a malfunction. Turn the camera on again to correct this. • With cameras featuring a built-in flash, vibration reduction does not function while the built-in flash is charging. • With autofocus cameras featuring an AF-ON button, vibration reduction does not function even when the AF-ON button is pressed. • When the camera is mounted on a tripod, set the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch a to OFF. However, set the switch to ON when using a tripod without securing the tripod head, or when using a monopod. 18
