ANTI-SHAKE SYSTEM

The Anti-Shake system minimizes the affect of camera
shake, a slight blurring caused by subtle hand motion.
Camera shake is more pronounced at long focal lengths
than short ones.
Anti-Shake is less effective with moving subjects or
when the camera is panned, with shutter speeds of 1/4
second or longer, and short object distances. Anti-shake
is disabled with bulb exposures (p. 45).
When the system is active, the Anti-Shake scale in the
viewfinder glows. Anti-Shake is turned off and on with the
Anti-shake switch.
Frame the subject as described in the basic operation
section. Press the shutter-release button partway down
to focus and set the exposure.
The Anti-Shake scale indicates the degree of
stabilization. The greater the scale displayed, the more
unstable the image. Confirm the image has stabilized
with the scale and press the shutter-release button all
the way down to take the picture.
Anti-shake cannot be used with some lenses, see page
110. Turn Anti-Shake off when the camera is mounted on
a tripod. The metered exposure may change when
turning this function on and off.
