While you look through the binoculars, the image may be shaking and
difficult to see since your hands are holding the binoculars. In such a
case, the Image Stabilizer can help steady the image.
There are two ways to use the Image Stabilizer. You can turn on the
Image Stabilizer as long as you hold down the Image Stabilizer button
and or you can turn on the Image Stabilizer for 5 minutes.

The Image Stabilizer operates
continuously while you hold down the
button. When you let go of the button, the
Image Stabilizer stops operating.
■

Press the Image Stabilizer button slowly
and quickly let it go, and the Image
