High-performance 5-axis image stabilization enables handheld shooting in dark locations
The in-body 5-axis image stabilization works on all compatible lenses for beautiful, blur-free photographs. (Up to approx. 6.5 steps*1 of shutter speed compensation.) Many scenes can be shot handheld, helping to keep your baggage light. Even more powerful IS is available when combined with image stabilization on a compatible lens for up to 7.5 steps*2 of shutter speed compensation.
