Recording
Applicable modes:
Using this mode, camera shake during picture taking is detected, and the camera automatically
compensates for it, enabling less blurred, or even blur-free images to be taken.
When recording motion pictures, “Active Mode” (stabilizer for motion pictures) will automatically
function. This decreases image blurring when recording motion pictures while walking, etc.
Settings: [ON]/[OFF]
