Taking too many fuzzy pictures? Canon IS * Lenses are the solution! I 01
Nice shot! Or is it? When you enlarge your image, the print looks fuzzy. Frustrating! But a common experience. In most cases, this occidental blurring is caused by camero shake - especially when shooting with a telephoto lens or at slow shutter speeds in dark places. Even if you try to stay still, the camero isn't perfectly steady in your hands when the shutter button is pressed. But now there's a great solution: Conan IS· Lenses. For beautifully clear, blur-free photos. With ease.
Day or night, indoors or outdoors.

IS benefits ,, ,, ~ - - - - - - - - -- ----- --------- --- - - --- -- - - - - - - - - - - - - When does camera shake tend to happen, and what causes it to occur? Perhaps you've encountered blurred images when enlarging pictures: photos that look fine in smaller postcard sizes appear quite fuzzy 01 greater size. In fact, camero shoke happens more frequently thon you'd think. There are several reasons for occidental blurring.
• Camera hak._ How do Canon IS Lenses repress blurring caused by camera shake? Conon IS lenses detect camero shake with a pair of buill-in gyro sensors, shifting lens components in the direction of the vibration to counteract il and Image Stabilizer Parallel Movement Principle I lens When $I~I prevent blurring. When the shutter button is pressed halfway while the IS function is on, compensotion for camero shake is activated in just 0.
---------------------------------------------------\, In-lens image stabilizer design benefits 'Why is each individual lens optimized for shake correction? Each Conan IS Lens has a unique optical design for specialized performance. So, Conan's optical correction systems and conlrol mechanisms ore customized for effective positioning in each lens model. Conan builds these mechanisms into the lenses to ensure that the optical correction system is optimized for each individual lens.
• '·omet ok._ How does a stable viewfinder image help you take better picture? looking into the viewfinder while focusing and framing is essential to SlR shooting, so a stable viewfinder image is crucial Canon IS lenses correct for camera shake by shifting certain optical components in inverse relation to the lens movement, maintaining the position of incoming light rays on the film or capturing elements.
, In-lens image stabilizer design benefits \ Improve your framing accuracy! Blurry viewfinder imoges lead to framing errors, so you con inadvertently cui off important details, especially when using a telephoto zoom lens. With Conon IS lenses such framing errors are a thing of the post. Canon's in·lens image stabilizers enable accurate framing when you fill the frome with port of your subject. Since the viewfinder image is blur-free, you can check every delail and make subtle framing adjustments.
• era ho~ • Capture fleeting photo opportunities! Concentrating on your subject is difficult iF the viewFinder image is blurred. When you lose concentration, you tend to miss small gestures and other momentary photo occasions. Canon IS in· lens image stabilizer gives you a clear viewfinder image, so itls easier to notice and capture such photo opportunities.
