Image Stabilization Icons - Canon PowerShot ELPH 530 HS User Manual

Shooting in Smart Auto Mode

Image Stabilization Icons

Optimal image stabilization for the shooting conditions is automatically applied
(Intelligent IS). Additionally, the following icons are displayed in A mode.
Image stabilization for still
images
Image stabilization for still
images, when panning*
Image stabilization for macro
shots (Hybrid IS)
* Displayed when you pan, following moving subjects with the camera. When you follow
subjects moving horizontally, image stabilization only counteracts vertical camera
shake, and horizontal stabilization stops. Similarly, when you follow subjects moving
vertically, image stabilization only counteracts horizontal camera shake.
• To cancel image stabilization, set [IS Mode] to [Off] (p. 119). In this case, an IS
icon is not displayed.
On-Screen Frames
A variety of frames are displayed once the camera detects subjects you are
aiming the camera at.
• A white frame is displayed around the subject (or person's face)
determined by the camera to be the main subject, and gray frames are
displayed around other detected faces. Frames follow moving subjects
within a certain range to keep them in focus.
However, if the camera detects subject movement, only the white frame
will remain on the screen.
• When you are pressing the shutter button halfway and the camera detects
subject movement, a blue frame is displayed, and the focus and image
brightness are constantly adjusted (Servo AF).
Try shooting in G mode (p. 97) if no frames are displayed, if frames
•
are not displayed around desired subjects, or if frames are displayed
on the background or similar areas.
