Setting the vibration reduction ON/OFF switch
ON: The effects of camera shake are reduced while the
shutter-release button is pressed halfway and also at
the instant the shutter is released. Because vibration is
reduced in the viewfinder, auto/manual focusing and
exact framing of the subject are easier.
OFF: The effects of camera shake are not reduced.
