Turning the Optical Image Stabilizer Off

E
With most camcorders, even the slightest hand movements will be noticeable
during telephoto recording. However, the OPTURA Pi's Optical Image Stabilizer
allows you to obtain steady recordings even at high magnification. Unlike
electronic image stabilizers, it causes no loss of picture quality. The Optical Image
Stabilizer can compensate for a wide range of camera movement — you can
record stable images even if you are shooting from a moving car.
(
1. To turn the Optical Image Stabilizer off, open the camera menu
and point the arrow at IMAGE S. i.
2. Select the OFF setting and close the menu.
• The i mark disappears from the display when the stabilizer is off.
• The image stabilizer cannot be turned off when the program selector is set to
the [ (Easy Recording) position.
• The image stabilizer is designed to deal with a normal degree of camera shake.
• Keep the image stabilizer turned off when the camera is mounted on a tripod.
• The image stabilizer is not as effective as usual when the tele-converter
(optional) is attached.
