Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)

Use the Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) function to minimize camera
shake. OIS may not be available with some lenses.
Camera shake tends to occur in dark locations or when shooting indoors.
Under these conditions, the camera uses slower shutter speeds to increase
the amount of light it takes in, which can result in a blurry photo. You can
prevent this by using the OIS function.
If your lens has an OIS switch, you must set the switch to ON to use the OIS
function.
In Shooting mode, press [m]
To set OIS options,

OIS may not function properly when:
-
You move your camera to follow a moving subject.
-
There is too much camera shake.
-
The shutter speed is slow (for example, when you select Night in
s mode).
-
The battery is low.
-
You capture a close-up shot.
If you use the OIS function with a tripod, your images may be blurred by
the vibration of the OIS sensor. Deactivate the OIS function when you use a
tripod.
If the camera is hit or dropped, the display will be blurry. If this occurs, turn off
the camera, and then turn it on again.
Use the OIS function only when needed because the function consumes
more battery power.
To set an OIS option on the menu, set the OIS switch on your lens to ON.
This option may not be available with some lenses.
