Vibration reduction mode (VRII)

Setting the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch

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.

Notes on using vibration reduction

• By enabling vibration reduction (VR), slower shutter speeds

(approximately four stops*) can be used when shooting distance is
between

and 2.6 m (the reproduction ratio from

to 1/30

×). The

higher the reproduction ratio from 1/30

× is, the more the effects of

vibration reduction will decrease gradually. (*Based on results achieved
under Nikon measurement conditions. The effects of vibration
reduction may vary according to shooting conditions and use.)

• After pressing the shutter-release button halfway, wait until the image

in the viewfinder stabilizes before pressing the shutter-release button
the rest of the way down.

• Due to the characteristics of the vibration reduction mechanism, the

image in the viewfinder may be blurred after the shutter is released.
This is not a malfunction.

• If the camera is panned in a wide arc, compensation for camera shake

in the panning direction is not performed. For example, only the effects
of vertical camera shake is reduced with horizontal panning.

• Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens from the camera while

vibration reduction is operating. Failure to observe this note could
result in the lens sounding and feeling as if an internal component is
loose or broken when it is shaken. This is not a malfunction. Turn the
camera on again to correct this.

• With cameras featuring a built-in flash, vibration reduction does not

function while the built-in flash is charging.

• With autofocus cameras featuring an AF-ON button, vibration

reduction does not function even when the AF-ON button is pressed.

• When the camera is mounted on a tripod, set the vibration reduction

ON/OFF switch a to

OFF. However, set the switch to ON when using

a tripod without securing the tripod head, or when using a monopod.
