This camera has a CCD shifting shake reduction system to compensate
for image blur caused by camera shake. The shake reduction function is
useful when taking a still image in a dark place, in Macro mode or in Tele
mode. To use the anti-shake function for movies, refer to “Compensating
for Camera Shake While Taking Movies” (p.90).

Taking Pictures Using the Shake Reduction Function
• To activate the Shake Reduction preview button, you need to set
[Shake Reduction] to On on the [A Rec.Mode] menu. For instructions
for setting, refer to “Setting the Shake Reduction for Still Pictures”
(p.91). [Shake Reduction] is set to On in the default settings.
• If you press the Shake Reduction preview button, while the [Shake
Reduction] is set to On on the [A Rec.Mode] menu, the shake
reduction function is activated even in Playback mode or Voice
Recording mode, or when the camera is connected to a PC or a
printer with the USB cable. To reduce power consumption, do not
press the Shake Reduction preview button unless necessary.
Just by pressing the shutter release button, you can take a compensated
still picture without pressing the Shake Reduction preview button. In this
case, the compensated image is not displayed on the LCD monitor.
