Less Blurring While Walking or Zooming

5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. +

HYBRID O.I.S. + uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide-angle to powerful zoom shots. It also achieves superb effects when shooting while walking.

5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. +
For Shooting While Walking

For Shooting While Walking
Blurring in the roll direction from shooting while walking is suppressed to produce truly beautiful images.

Across the Entire Shooting Range

Across the Entire Shooting Range
Detected blurring caused by vertical or horizontal wrist movements is corrected using a lens in the optical system.

For Zooming

For Zooming
Areas of the sensor that are not used for zooming are electronically controlled to compensate for hand-shake.

Auto O.I.S. Lock

The camera detects a scene that needs stronger stabilization (when zooming, for example), and automatically activates O.I.S. Lock. This increases the compensation area over previous models, and provides more stable images.

Manual O.I.S. Lock

Manual O.I.S. Lock
The button is pressed and held when necessary.

Auto O.I.S. Lock

Auto O.I.S. Lock
O.I.S. Lock is automatically controlled by the camera.

Ideally Designed for Video Shooting

In addition to being lightweight and compact, an ergonomically designed grip snugly fits the hand for comfortable, extended shooting.

- The lens barrel gives you a firm grip for stable video shooting.
- That’s why it’s great for extended shooting.
- And it’s also why it resists blurring.
