Changing the IS-Mode Settings
● Choose [IS Mode], then press the qr
buttons to choose an option.
Continuous
Image stabilization is always on.
You can confirm the effects
directly on the display, which
makes it easier to check the
composition or focus. When
shooting movies, the camera also
reduces strong camera shake, for
example when walking (Dynamic
mode).
Shoot Only*
Image stabilization is only active
at the moment of shooting.
Panning*
Image stabilization only counters
up and down motion. This option
is recommended for shooting
objects moving horizontally.
* Setting changes to [Continuous] when
shooting movies.
• If camera shake is too strong, attach the camera to a tripod. You should
also set the IS Mode to [Off] when the camera is attached to a tripod.
• When using [Panning], hold the camera horizontally to shoot. Image
stabilization does not work when the camera is held vertically.
When shooting movies, if you press the zoom lever toward j and zoom
out, the effect increases.
