Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer
• When you use a tripod, the Image Stabilizer
should be turned off to save battery power.
• The stabilizer is equally effective for hand-held
photography and photography with a monopod.
• The image stabilizer function also operates when
the lens is used with an Extension Tube EF12 ll or
EF25 ll.
• Pictures may look distorted after being taken
depending on the camera, but this doesn't affect
shooting.
• If you set the camera’s Custom Function to
change the assigned button to operate the AF, the
Image Stabilizer will operate when you press the
newly assigned AF button.
• The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.
•
Set the STABILIZER switch to when you are
taking pictures using the Bulb setting (long
exposures).If the STABILIZER switch is set to ,
the image stabilizer function may introduce errors.
• The Image Stabilizer might not be fully effective in
the following cases:
•You shoot while riding on a bumpy road.
•You move the camera dramatically for a panning
shot in Mode 1.
•You shoot using techniques other than following
shots in Mode 2.
• The Image Stabilizer consumes more power than
normal shooting, so fewer shots can be taken if
you use the function.
• The image stabilizer operates for about two
seconds even when your finger is off the shutter
button.Do not remove the lens while the stabilizer
is in operation.This will cause a malfunction.
•With the EOS-1V/HS, 3, ELAN 7E/ELAN 7/30/33,
ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, ELAN II/ELAN
IIE/50/50E, REBEL 2000/300, IX, and D30, the
Image Stabilizer will not work during self-timer
operation.
