Canon EOS 7D Mark II Wi-Fi Adapter Kit Manual

45

When you use the IS lens’s built-in Image Stabilizer, camera shake is 
corrected to obtain a sharper shot. The procedure explained here is 
based on the EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens as an example.

* IS stands for Image Stabilizer.

Set the IS switch to <1>.

 

Also set the camera’s power switch to 
<1>.

X

The Image Stabilizer will operate.

 

When the picture looks steady in the 
viewfinder, press the shutter button 
completely to take the picture.

 

The Image Stabilizer will not be effective if the subject moves during the 
exposure.

 

For bulb exposures, set the IS switch to <2>. If <1> is set, Image 
Stabilizer misoperation may occur.

 

The Image Stabilizer may not be effective for excessive shaking such as 
on a rocking boat.

 

The Image Stabilizer can operate with the lens’s focus mode switch set 
to either <AF> or <MF>.

 

When using a tripod, you can still shoot with the IS switch set to <1> 
with no problem. However, to save battery power, setting the IS switch to 
<2> is recommended.

 

The Image Stabilizer is effective even when the camera is mounted on a 
monopod.

 

With the EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM or EF-S15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS 
USM lens, the Image Stabilizer mode may switch automatically to suit 
the shooting conditions.
