Optical Picture Stabilisation
ƈ The OPS function reduces camera shake that occurs when the shutter release button is pressed.
This is useful for taking pictures in situations where camera shake is likely to occur. The OPS function
allows you to take pictures at approximately 2 to 3.5 steps slower shutter speed without the risk of the
camera shake.
The OPS function is ideal when taking pictures in the following situations.
- When taking pictures in dimly lit locations, such as indoors, at night, on cloudy days and in the shade
- When taking telephoto pictures

ƃ The OPS function does not compensate for blurring caused by movement of the subject. To take
pictures of a moving subject, increase the shutter speed.
ƃ The OPS function may not fully reduce camera shake when taking close-up shots. In this case, it
is recommended that the OPS function be turned off and the camera be used with a tripod.
ƃ The OPS function will not fully work when shooting with a slower shutter speed, for example when
shooting a moving subject or night scenes. In this case, it is recommended that the OPS function
be turned off and the camera be used with a tripod.
