Image Stabilization Icons
 Still Images 
 Movies
Optimal image stabilization for the shooting conditions is automatically 
applied (Intelligent IS). Additionally, the following icons are displayed in 
[
] and [
] modes.
Image stabilization for still images (Normal)
Image stabilization for still images when panning (Panning)*
Corrects the angle shake or shift shake when you take a macro 
shot (Hybrid IS). During movie recording, [
] is displayed, 
furthermore, [
] corrects the camera shake.
Image stabilization for movies, reducing strong camera shake, as 
when shooting while walking (Dynamic)
Image stabilization for slow camera shake, such as when 
shooting movies at telephoto (Powered)
No image stabilization, because the camera is mounted on 
a tripod or held still by other means. However, during movie 
recording, [
] is displayed, and image stabilization to counteract 
wind or other sources of vibration is used (Tripod 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] (= 53). In 
this case, an IS icon is not displayed.
 
In [
] mode, no [
] icon is displayed.
Continuous Shooting Scenes
If you shoot a still image when the following scene icons are displayed, 
the camera will shoot continuously. If you press the shutter button halfway 
when one of the icons in the table below is displayed, one of the following 
icons will be displayed to inform you that the camera will shoot continuous 
images: [ ] [ ] [ ].
Smiling
(including Babies)
Consecutive images are captured, and the camera 
analyzes details such as facial expressions to save 
the image determined to be the best.
Sleeping
(including Babies)
Beautiful shots of sleeping faces, created by 
combining consecutive shots to reduce camera 
shake and image noise.  
The AF-assist beam will not light up, the flash will 
not fire. The shutter sound will not be played.
Children
So you don’t miss a photo opportunity of children 
who move around, the camera will capture three 
consecutive images for each shot.
 
In some scenes, expected images may not be saved, and images 
may not look as expected.
 
Focus, image brightness, and color are determined by the first 
shot.
 
When you want to shoot single images only, press the [ ] button, 
choose [
] in the menu, and then choose [
].
