Image stabilizer switch
Set the image stabilizer switch to ON when you
want to use the Image Stabilizer.
This function provides image stabilization
z
appropriate for shooting conditions (such as
shooting still subjects and panning shots).
The Image Stabilizer will work in combination
z
with cameras with in-body Image Stabilizer.
Set the image stabilizer switch to OFF when
z
you are not going to use the Image Stabilizer.
The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a
z
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.
The Image Stabilizer may not be fully effective
z
if you shoot from a violently shaking vehicle or
other transportation.
If using a camera that allows you to change
z
the shutter mode setting, [Elec. 1st-curtain] or
[Electronic] settings is recommended* to allow
the Image Stabilizer to be fully effective.
* When using an EOS R camera, select either
[Mode 1] (default factory setting) or [Mode
2] in the [Silent LV shoot.] settings, or select
[Enable] in the [Silent shutter] settings.
When using a tripod, it is recommended that you
z
set the image stabilizer switch to OFF.
Even with a monopod, the Image Stabilizer will
z
be as effective as during hand-held shooting.
However, depending on the shooting conditions,
there are cases in which the Image Stabilizer
effect may be less effective.
