IMAGE_STABILIZER_OFF  OFF

Deactivates image stabilizer.

IMAGE_STABILIZER_EIS  EIS /OIS

Reduces camera shake under normal shooting conditions.

IMAGE_STABILIZER_+1  AIS
( MOVIE video mode only)

Reduces camera shake more effectively when shooting bright scenes on the wide angle end.
Only on the wide angle end (approx. 5x).

IMAGE_STABILIZER_+2 ENHANCED AIS
( MOVIE video mode only)

The area of correction is greater than that in “AIS”. Camera shake can be reduced more effectively even when recording is performed by zooming from wide angle to telephoto, or moving together with the subject.

Memo

It is recommended to set the image stabilizer to “OFF” when shooting a subject of little movement with the unit on a tripod.

Complete stabilization may not be possible if camera shake is excessive.

When “AIS” is set, the angle of view becomes narrower. In “ENHANCED AIS”, the angle of view becomes even narrower than “AIS”.

Image stabilization only starts when the SNAPSHOT button is pressed halfway during still image recording.
