Key Features

Balanced Optical SteadyShot - 5-axis Intelligent Active mode

Balanced Optical SteadyShot - 5-axis Intelligent Active mode

Our advanced image stabilisation suppresses camera shake to stabilise a movie as it is being shot within the wide-angle-to-telephoto zoom range, even under unsteady conditions. 5-axis Intelligent Active mode compensates for vibration in five different directions, so you can shoot stable high-quality movies even while running.

Rapid AF response to capture decisive moments
