aspect ratio.
Both
Both grid lines, and the 3:2 guide will
display.
In mode, you cannot set [3:2 Guide] or [Both].
Grid Lines will not be recorded on the image.
The gray areas displayed with [3:2 Guide] are the areas that will not be
printed. The actual image recorded will include the portion in the gray areas.
Continuous
Image stabilization is always on. You can
confirm the result directly on the display,
which makes it easier to check the
composition or focus.
Shoot Only
Image stabilization is only active at the
moment of shooting.
Panning
Image stabilization only counters up and
down motion. This option is
recommended for shooting objects
moving horizontally.
If camera shake is too strong, attach the camera to a tripod. It is
recommended to set the IS Mode to [Off] when the camera is attached
to a tripod.
When using [Panning], hold the camera horizontally. Image stabilization
does not work when the camera is held vertically.
