Use the image stabilizer to compensate for camcorder shake in order to achieve steadier shots. When taking photos, you can turn image stabilization on and off. When recording clips, you can select the method that best suits your needs.
| IS mode | Shooting method |
|---|---|
 Standard IS | Compensates for a lower degree of camcorder shake, such as when shooting while remaining stationary, and is suitable for shooting natural-looking scenes. |
 Dynamic IS* | Compensates for a higher degree of camcorder shake, such as when shooting while walking, and is more effective as the zoom approaches full wide angle |
 Powered IS | Powered IS is most effective when you are stationary and zooming in on far subjects using high zoom ratios (the more you approach the telephoto end). This mode is not suitable for tilting and panning shots. |
 Off | Use this setting when the camcorder is mounted on a tripod. |
*Not available when recording 4K clips, using the slow & fast motion recording mode or taking photos.

- If the degree of camcorder shake is too high, the image stabilizer may not be able to fully compensate.
- When using Dynamic IS, the edges of the picture may be adversely affected (ghosting, artifacts and/or dark areas may appear) when compensating for a high degree of camcorder shake. Additionally, the angle of view when using Dynamic IS differs from the angle of view when using Standard IS or no image stabilization.
