Shooting Functions
4
The Shake Reduction function operates by obtaining the lens information
such as focal length.
If the camera uses a DA, DA L, D FA, FA J, FA or F lens, the lens
information is automatically obtained when the Shake Reduction function
is activated.
If you use a lens whose information such as focal length cannot be
automatically obtained (p.312), the [Input Focal Length] setting screen
appears when the camera is turned on with the Shake Reduction function
set to k.
Set the focal length manually in the [Input Focal Length] setting screen.
• Be sure to turn the Shake Reduction function off when using the camera with
a tripod.
•
The Shake Reduction function automatically turns off in the following situations.
- Self-timer shooting
- Remote Control shooting
- when the shutter speed is set to h
- when [Auto Align] is set to P (Off) in the [HDR Capture] setting
- when using the flash in the wireless mode
•
The Shake Reduction function is automatically turned on when the capture
mode is set to
Z
(Night Scene HDR) of
H
(Scene) mode.
• You can also change the setting from the [A Rec. Mode 4] menu (p.88).
•
The Shake Reduction function will not fully work (for about 2 seconds) right
after turning on the camera or restoring from Auto Power Off. Wait for the
Shake Reduction function to become stable, and then press the shutter button
gently. If
k
appears in the viewfinder when you press the shutter release
button halfway, the camera is ready to take a picture.
•
The Shake Reduction
function
is available with any
W
compatible PENTAX
lens. However, when the aperture ring is set to other than the
s
(Auto) position
or a lens without an
s
position is used, the camera will not operate unless [22.
Using Aperture Ring] is set to [Permitted] in the [
A
Custom Setting 4] menu. Set
this beforehand. In such cases, however, some functions will be restricted. Refer
to “Notes on [22. Using Aperture Ring]” (p.314) for details.
When the Focal Length Cannot Be Automatically Detected
• The [Input Focal Length] setting screen does not appear when using a lens
whose information such as focal length can be automatically obtained.
• When using a lens without the s position on the aperture or with the aperture
set to a position other than the s position, set [22. Using Aperture Ring] in
the [A Custom Setting 4] menu to [Permitted]. (p.314)
• The effect of Shake Reduction is influenced by the shooting distance as well
as focal length information. The Shake Reduction function may not work as
effectively as expected when shooting at close ranges.
