    Procedure
    [r ] (REC)  * [MENU]  * REC Tab  * Anti Shake
    You can turn on the camera’s Anti Shake  feature to reduce image blur due to subject 
    movement or camera movement when shoot ing a moving subject using telephoto, 
    when shooting a fast-moving subject, or w hen shooting under dim lighting conditions.
    NOTE
    •Only “A
     Camera AS” can be used during movie recording.
    • The ISO sensitivity setting (page 34) must be “AUTO” for “ S Image AS” to work.
    • If the flash fires, the Anti Shake icon  A will remain on the display, even though 
    Anti Shake does not functi on during flash photography.
    • Shooting with Anti Shake can cause an image to appear somewhat coarser than  normal and can cause slight deterioration of image resolution.
    • Anti Shake may not be able to eliminate the effects of camera or subject movement 
    when movement is severe.
    •“ A
     Camera AS” may not work properly when the camera is mounted on a tripod. 
    Either turn off Anti Shake or select “ S Image AS”.
    • When the image size setting is “RAW+” (page 30), this setting becomes “ A 
    Camera AS” when the Anti Shake setting is “ D Auto”, and “Off” when the Anti 
    Shake setting is “ S Image AS”.

    Tips for Best Face Detection Results
    • The camera performs center focus if it cannot detect a face.
    • Always make sure that Auto Focus (AF) is selected as the focus mode when  shooting with face detection.
    • Detection of the following ty pes of faces is not supported.
    – A face that is obstructed by hair, sunglasses, a hat, etc., or a face in dark shade
    – A profile or a face that is at an angle
    – A face that is very far away and small, or very close and large
    – A face in an area that is very dark
    – A face of a pet or some other non-human subject
    IMPORTANT!
    • Face detection cannot be used in combination with any of the following features. – Some BEST SHOT scenes (Digital Panning, Move Out CS, Move In CS,  For YouTube, Prerecord (Movie))
    – Movie Mode
    – Prerecord (Still image)
