Nikon 70-200mm-f4G-ED-AF-S-VR-Zoom-Nikkor: Using Vibration Reduction: Notes

Using Vibration Reduction: Notes

•

Slide the vibration reduction switch to OFF if the camera does not

support vibration reduction (pg. 14).

Leaving vibration reduction on

may greatly increase the drain on the battery, particularly in the case of

En

Pronea 600i/6i cameras.

•

When using vibration reduction, press the shutter‑release button

halfway and wait for the image in the viewfinder to stabilize before

pressing the shutter‑release button the rest of the way down.

•

When vibration reduction is active, the image in the viewfinder may be

blurred after the shutter is released.

This does not indicate a

malfunction.

•

Slide the vibration reduction mode switch to NORMAL for panning

shots. When the camera is panned, vibration reduction applies only to

motion that is not part of the pan (if the camera is panned horizontally,

for example, vibration reduction will be applied only to vertical shake),

making it much easier to pan the camera smoothly in a wide arc.

•

Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens while vibration reduction

is in effect.

If power to the lens is cut while vibration reduction is on, the

lens may rattle when shaken.

This is not a malfunction, and can be

corrected by reattaching the lens and turning the camera on.

•

If the camera is equipped with a built‑in flash, vibration reduction will

be disabled while the flash charges.

•

Turn vibration reduction off when the camera is securely mounted on a

tripod, but leave it on if the tripod head is not secured or when using a

monopod.
