Intelligent IS
Intelligent IS is the latest image stabilisation technology which can conveniently
help you achieve sharp photos and movies – whether shooting extreme macro
close-ups or moving to keep up with the action. Versatile and fully automatic,
Intelligent IS constantly detects your subject and adapts the optical Image Stabilizer
to the scene, from seven available modes:
Powered IS: When shooting
movies with high zoom,
Powered IS uses Canon
camcorder technology to
provide much steadier
footage for more clarity
and less wobble.
Dynamic IS: Helps produce
smooth and clear movies.
It corrects both hand shake
and user-movement
vibrations – such as when
shooting from a car or
walking along with the action.
Normal IS: Combines
standard optical image
stabilisation with Hybrid IS
for minimum blur when
shooting photos.
Macro IS: Optimises Hybrid
IS when shooting from very
short distance. Originally
developed for professional
Canon EF lenses, Hybrid IS
provides ideal correction for
sharp handheld close-ups.
Tripod Mode: Whenever the
camera is fixed on a steady
surface it automatically turns
image stabilisation off for
optimum results.
Panning IS: Stabilises in only
one direction, allowing you to
smoothly keep the framing
on a moving subject. Works
with either horizontal or
vertical panning.
Dynamic & Macro IS:
Detects when filming from
short distance and combines
the corrections of Dynamic
and Hybrid IS for sharper
and smoother footage.
