Camera Shake Indicator 17 In this mode, the camera warns you before you shoot if camera shake is likely to cause blurring. Also, when there is significant camera shake, this mode helps reduce blurring. If the green and orange lamps blink alternately when you hold the camera, it means that the camera is shaking and blurring may result. Hold the camera securely until the lamps stop blinking; then press the shutter release button. We recommend to fix the camera by using a tripod, when shooting subjects in dark places using the flash-off mode, night scene flash mode, or red-eye reduction night scene flash mode.
