in the setup menu ( A 106), the R icon may appear in the monitor. The appearance of R indicates
shooting conditions in which the effects of camera shake can be pronounced. In these situations,
the camera reduces the effects of camera shake in pictures before recording them. Even if pictures

shake can be compensated during playback for pictures marked with S (
