The setup menu

Active

] is recommended if you are not concerned about the slight

variations in image composition that may occur. The amount of camera shake
compensation is higher than that of [

Normal (framing first)

] or [

Active (framing

first)

].

[

Normal (framing first)

] is recommended when you intend to significantly change the

direction of the camera while shooting, such as when panning. The camera automatically
detects the panning direction and only compensates for vibration caused by camera
shake.

Images on the screen may be displayed blurry immediately after shooting.

Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shake
in some situations.
