Anti-Shake mechanism

CCD Anti-Shake system

Advanced CCD-shift Anti-Shake system

Unlike conventional systems that use a corrective system built into the lens, DiMAGE Z3 features a unique Konica Minolta innovation that actually shifts the CCD to counteract the effects of camera shake. This avoids the sacrifices in optical quality conventional systems are forced to make, assuring you of the beautiful results you want, free of the blurring that so often spoils handheld photography. What's more, Anti-Shake is driven by an exclusive algorithm that offers stability over a wider range than conventional systems (2 to 3 shutter speeds slower than the standard estimate for a scene, depending on shooting conditions).

Automatic detection of panning

When you're panning to follow your subject, unwanted anti-shake compensation can ruin your shot. DiMAGE Z3's advanced anti-shake system is designed to recognize the difference between panning movement and unwanted camera-shake, and apply compensation accordingly.

Selectable anti-shake modes

The anti-shake mechanism is available in three modes: Normal, Off and In Exposure Only. In Normal mode, anti-shake compensation is applied as soon as the shutter release button is pressed partway down. And if you find composing a shot with anti-shake engaged uncomfortable select In Exposure Only mode, as compensation is turned on only for the time of actual exposure.
