Taking Pictures Using the Shake Reduction
Function
Shake Reduction
The Shake Reduction function reduces camera shake that occurs
when the shutter release button is pressed. This is useful for taking
pictures in situations where camera shake is likely to occur. The Shake
Reduction function allows you to take pictures at approximately 4 steps
slower shutter speed without the risk of camera shake.
The Shake Reduction function is ideal when taking pictures in the
following situations.
• When taking pictures in dimly lit locations, such as indoors, at
night, on cloudy days and in the shade
• When taking telephoto pictures
•
The Shake Reduction function does not compensate for blurring caused by
subject movement. To take pictures of a moving subject, increase the
shutter speed.
•
The Shake Reduction function may not fully reduce camera shake when
taking close-up shots. In this case, it is recommended that the Shake
Reduction function be turned off and the camera be used with a tripod.
•
The Shake Reduction function will not fully work when shooting with a very
slow shutter speed, for example when shooting a moving subject or night
scenes. In this case, it is recommended that the Shake Reduction function
be turned off and the camera be used with a tripod.
