Lens Image Stabilizer - Canon EOS 750D Basic Instruction Manual

Lens Image Stabilizer

When you use the IS lens's built-in Image Stabilizer, camera shake is
corrected to obtain a sharper shot. The procedure explained here is
based on the EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens as an example.
* IS stands for Image Stabilizer.
The Image Stabilizer will not be effective if the subject moves during the
exposure.
For bulb exposures, set the IS switch to <2>. If <1> is set, Image
Stabilizer misoperation may occur.
The Image Stabilizer may not be effective for excessive shaking such as
on a rocking boat.
The Image Stabilizer can operate with the lens's focus mode switch set
to either <AF> or <MF>.
When using a tripod, you can still shoot with the IS switch set to <1>
with no problem. However, to save battery power, setting the IS switch to
<2> is recommended.
The Image Stabilizer is effective even when the camera is mounted on a
monopod.
With the EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6
IS STM lens, or EF-S55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens, the Image
Stabilizer mode will be switched automatically to suit the shooting
conditions.
