Lens Stabilization Lens stabilization, also known as optical image stabilization (OIS) or vibration reduction (VR), is a technology used in camera lenses to reduce the effects of camera shake and motion blur in images and videos. Lens stabilization systems use internal mechanisms, such as gyroscopic sensors and moving lens elements, to detect and counteract camera movement in real-time, allowing photographers to achieve sharper images and smoother footage when shooting handheld or at slower shutter speeds.
Lens stabilization compensates for minor movements and vibrations caused by hand-held shooting, unstable platforms, or telephoto lens magnification, resulting in improved image quality and reduced blur. Some lens stabilization systems also work in conjunction with camera body stabilization (in-body stabilization) to provide enhanced stabilization performance and compatibility across different lenses and camera bodies. Lens stabilization is particularly beneficial for photographers shooting in low-light conditions, using telephoto lenses, or capturing handheld video footage, where maintaining sharpness and stability are critical for achieving professional-quality results. |
