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

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.

camera motions on the image. This option is

recommended for shooting objects moving horizontally.
