ibration reduction may be unavailable with some lenses.
We recommend that you wait for the image in the display to stabilize
before shooting.
Depending on the lens, when vibration reduction is active, the image in
the viewnder may jiggle after the shutter is released, but this does not
indicate a malfunction.
[Normal] or [Sport] is recommended for panning shots. In [Normal] or
[Sport] mode, vibration reduction applies only to motion that is not part
of the pan. If the camera is panned horizontally, for example, vibration
reduction will be applied only to vertical shake.
If you will use a tripod or monopod with a VR lens camera, the settings
may dier depending on the lens. Consult the lens documentation before
use for more information.
