david_pascolla Posted July 21, 1999 Share Posted July 21, 1999 With the IS function turned on is it necessary to wait a few secondsafter focusing on the subject for the IS to actually lock in or canI fire away immediatly after focus is locked on. (It seems like rightafter I lock onto my subject I here the IS doing its thing). Not sureif I have to wait...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobatkins Posted July 21, 1999 Share Posted July 21, 1999 You have to wait for the IS to take effect. It's fairly obvious from the viewfinder image. It takes a second or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrie_weston Posted December 12, 1999 Share Posted December 12, 1999 Bod's right. From your question I feel you are thinking of using IS for action type subjects. When I try for (Eg.) birds in flight, I turn IS off. I believe the 300mmf4 IS allows a second IS mode which accounts for panning movement and may be a suitable compromise in most cases.
