Vibration reduction mode (VRII)

Basic concept behind vibration reduction

Set the vibration reduction mode switch to
NORMAL.
Set the vibration reduction mode switch to
ACTIVE.

Setting the vibration reduction ON/OFF
switch (Fig. B)

ON:

The effects of camera shake are reduced
while the shutter- release button is pressed
halfway and also at the instant the shutter is
released. Because vibration is reduced in
the viewfinder, auto/manual focusing and
exact framing of the subject are easier.

OFF:

The effects of camera shake are not reduced.

Setting the vibration reduction mode switch
(Fig. C)

Set the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch to ON and
choose a vibration reduction mode with the vibration
reduction mode switch.
NORMAL: The vibration reduction mechanism

primarily reduces the effects of camera
shake. The effects of camera shake are also
reduced with horizontal and vertical
panning.

ACTIVE:

The vibration reduction mechanism
reduces the effects of camera shake, such as
that which occurs when taking pictures
from a moving vehicle, whether it be
normal or more intense camera shake. In
this mode, camera shake is not
automatically distinguished from panning
motion.

When taking pictures

Set the vibration reduction
mode switch to either
NORMAL or ACTIVE.

When taking panning
shots

Set the vibration reduction
mode switch to NORMAL.

When taking pictures
from a moving vehicle

Set the vibration reduction
mode switch to ACTIVE.
