[N
ormal] or [Active] is recommended if you are not concerned about the slight
variations in image composition that may occur. The amount of camera shake
compensation is higher than that of [Normal (framing rst)] or [Active (framing

[Normal (framing rst)] is recommended when you intend to signicantly change the
direction of the camera while shooting, such as when panning. The camera automatically

shake.
