Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection can be temporarily
disabled in the auto-recording menu. When disabled, the program
exposure mode is active. If the camera is turned off, Automatic
Digital Subject Program Selection is activated.
Anti-Shake
The Anti-Shake system minimizes the affect of camera shake, a slight blurring caused by subtle
hand motion. Camera shake is more pronounced at the telephoto setting than at the wide-angle.
Anti-Shake is employed when the shutter speed falls below a certain limit depending on the focal
length in use. The effectiveness of Anti-Shake depends on the shutter-speed in use and the degree
of shaking. The system may not work with moving subjects or when the camera is panned.

Anti-shake
indicator
When the system is active, the Anti-Shake indi-
cator appears. Regardless of the Anti-Shake
setting, if the shutter speed is too slow for the
camera to be safely handheld, the camera-
shake indicator appears as a warning. Use the
built-in flash or a wide-angle zoom position.
The Anti-Shake system is less effective at short subject distances or when using the macro function
(p. 35). The use of a tripod is recommended. Anti-Shake is not effective with a tripod mounted cam-
era; turn off the Anti-Shake function to conserve power.
Three Anti-Shake options are available in section 1 of the recording menus.
Display + Exp. - when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down, the anti-Shake function
activates. The affect of the Anti-Shake system can be seen in the live image.
Exposure - Anti-Shake is only applied during the exposure and is not apparent in the live image.
When the shutter-release button is pressed partway down, wait a moment before taking the picture
for the Anti-Shake system to stabilize the image.
Off - Anti-Shake will not activate.
Frame the subject as described in the basic operation section and press the shutter-release button
partway down. Confirm the image has stabilized on the monitor and press the shutter-release but-
ton all the way down to take the picture. If Anti-Shake cannot compensate the camera motion, the
Anti-Shake indicator turns red.

A thermometer indicator replaces the Anti-Shake indicator when the camera is overheating
because of high operating or ambient temperatures. When taking still images, the Anti-
Shake system is used only for the exposure. When taking movies, Anti-Shake is canceled.
Allow the camera to cool before using Anti-Shake.
