The vibration reduction / motion detection icon
Vibration reduction corrects camera shaking that commonly occurs when shooting with zooming or
at slow shutter speeds.
Motion detection increases the shutter speed in shooting still pictures to reduce the vibrations
when camera shaking or subject blurring is detected. (This function is not activated in the movie
mode.)
A description of each vibration reduction / motion detection icon is as follows.
• s: Vibration reduction (A 123) is set to ON and the motion detection (A 124) is set to AUTO
(default setting) on the setup menu ( A 114).
• q: Vibration reduction is set to ON and the motion detection is set to OFF.
• r: Motion detection is set to AUTO and vibration reduction is set to OFF.
• No icon: Both vibration reduction and the motion detection are set to OFF.
• Turn vibration reduction off when using a tripod.
• In the shooting mode (A 124) where motion detection is not activated, s or r is not
displayed regardless of the setting of the
motion detection.
