Preventing jitter (camera shake)
When the jitter alert [ ] appears, use [Stabilizer], a tripod, the self-timer (P195) or the
shutter remote control (DMW-RSL1: optional) (P354) .
• Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the
moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen.
We recommend using a tripod.

[Operation
Mode]
[ ]
([Normal])
Vertical and horizontal shake are
compensated for.
[ ]
([Panning])
Camera shake is corrected for up/down
movements.
This mode is ideal for panning (a method
of taking pictures which involves turning
the camera to track the movements of a
subject which continues to move in a fixed direction).
[OFF]
[Stabilizer] does not work.
• When using a lens with an O.I.S. switch, set the switch to
[OFF].
[E-Stabilizat
ion (Video)]
Jitter during motion picture recording is corrected along the vertical,
horizontal, roll, pitch, and yaw axes (5-Axis Hybrid Image Stabilizer).
[ON]/[OFF]
• When [ON] is selected, the angle of view of recorded motion pictures may
become narrower.
[Focal
Length Set]
If your lens is compatible with the In-Body Image Stabilizer and the focal
length is not set automatically, you can set it manually.
(P218)
• When a manually selected focal length is set, a confirmation screen asking
you to change the focal length setting is displayed after you turn on the
camera. Selecting [Yes] allows you to set [Focal Length Set] in [Stabilizer].
