Setting the vibration reduction mode
switch (Fig. C)
NORMAL:The vibration reduction mechanism
primarily reduces camera shake,
making smooth panning shots
possible.
ACTIVE: The vibration reduction mechanism
reduces more noticeable camera
shake, such as that which occurs
when taking pictures from a moving
vehicle. In this mode, the lens does
not automatically distinguish
panning from camera shake.
Notes on using vibration reduction
• 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.
• When taking panning shots, be sure to set
the vibration reduction mode switch to
NORMAL.
• If the camera is panned in a wide arc,
compensation for camera shake in the
panning direction is not performed. For
example, when panning the camera in a
horizontal direction, vertical camera shake is
reduced. This stabilizes the image whilst
allowing the desired panning effect to be
realized.
• 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.
