6 O.I.S. switch
When the lens is attached to the camera the
stabiliser function is set to activate if the O.I.S.
switch is set to [ON].
≥ We recommend setting the O.I.S. switch to [OFF]
when using a tripod.
≥ The stabiliser function may not be effective in the
following cases.
– When there is a lot of jitter.
– When the zoom magnification is high.
– When using the digital zoom.
– When taking pictures while following a moving
subject.
– When the shutter speed becomes slower to take
pictures indoors or in dark places.
Note
≥ When flash recording with a close subject, the
light of the flash will be blocked by the lens and
part of the picture may be dark. Check the
distance from the subject when recording.
≥ If you zoom after focusing, focusing errors may occur.
After zooming, please perform the focusing again.
