Stabilizer, Zoom and Flash
Correcting jitter
●
When you use a tripod, we recommend setting [Stabilizer] to [OFF].
●
To perform a panning by selecting [ ], we recommend taking pictures using the viewfinder.
●
Cases where the stabilizer function may be ineffective:
• When there is a lot of jitter
• When the zoom magnification is high (also in the Digital Zoom range)
• When taking pictures while following a moving subject
• When the shutter speed becomes slower to take pictures indoors or in dark places
●
The panning effect by selecting [ ] is not fully achieved in the following cases:
• Bright summer days or other bright locations
• When the shutter speed is higher than 1/100 seconds
• When the motion of a subject is slow and the speed with which the camera is moved is too slow
(a nice background blur is not achieved)
• When the camera is not adequately tracking the motion of a subject
Not available in the following case:
●
[Stabilizer] cannot be used by selecting [ ] (Normal) during panorama picture recording.
