The lens-shift type image stabilizer function allows you to minimize the
camera shake effect (blurred images) when you shoot distant subjects
that have been magnified or when you shoot in dark conditions without
a flash.

Continuous
You can check the effect of the IS mode on image blur
on the LCD monitor since the IS mode runs continually.
This makes it easier to compose images and focus on
subjects.
Shoot Only
Shoot Only IS mode is only activated when the shutter
button is pressed. When set to [Continuous], some
blurring may occur depending on the subjects. In Shoot
Only mode, subjects can be taken without concern for
any unnatural movement that may appear on the LCD
monitor.
Panning
This option only stabilizes the effect of up and down
camera motions on the image. This option is
recommended for shooting objects moving horizontally.
