recommend that you not use the DIS function when
using the VIEWCAM on a tripod.

Digital Quick Zoom is on.

• The DIS function cannot compensate for excessive
image shakes, or for the subjects or situations
described below.

Digital Image Stabilization
(DIS)
The digital image stabilization (DIS) function
lets you stabilize the image by electronically
compensating for relatively small image shakes
that are often annoying in close-up shots.
