In-lens image stabilization mechanism

  • Angular rate sensor detects camera shake
  • Compensate by moving the shift lens

The angular rate sensor

  • To detect the rotational swing
  • Fluctuations that occur in parallel can not detect macro
  • Other techniques for image stabilization
  • Using the imaging device to detect the motion vector
  • Must be provided separately dedicated imaging device

Synthesis to reduce the blurring by shooting

  • Long processing time
  • Not correspond to the movement

Canon patent

  • To calculate the amount of image blur from the calculation of the Live View
  • Corrected by moving the shift lens
