<p>In photography, image stabilization can facilitate shutter speeds 2 to 5.5 <a href="F-number" title="F-number">stops</a> slower (exposures 4 to 30 times longer), and even slower effective speeds have been reported.
</p><p>A <a href="Rule_of_thumb" title="Rule of thumb">rule of thumb</a> to determine the slowest shutter speed possible for hand-holding without noticeable blur due to camera shake is to take the <a href="Multiplicative_inverse" title="Multiplicative inverse">reciprocal</a> of the <a href="Crop_factor" title="Crop factor">35&nbsp;mm equivalent</a> focal length of the lens, also known as the "1/mm rule"<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>. For example, at a focal length of 125&nbsp;mm on a 35&nbsp;mm camera, vibration or camera shake could affect sharpness if the shutter speed is slower than <span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">125</span></span> second. As a result of the 2-to-4.5-stops slower shutter speeds allowed by IS, an image taken at <span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">125</span></span> second speed with an ordinary lens could be taken at <span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">15</span></span> or <span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">8</span></span> second with an IS-equipped lens and produce almost the same quality. The sharpness obtainable at a given speed can increase dramatically.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
When calculating the effective focal length, it is important to take into account the image format a camera uses. For example, many digital SLR cameras use an image sensor that is <span class="frac"><span class="num">2</span>⁄<span class="den">3</span></span>, <span class="frac"><span class="num">5</span>⁄<span class="den">8</span></span>, or <span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">2</span></span> the size of a 35&nbsp;mm film frame. This means that the 35&nbsp;mm frame is 1.5, 1.6, or 2 times the size of the digital sensor. The latter values are referred to as the <a href="Crop_factor" title="Crop factor">crop factor</a>, field-of-view crop factor, focal-length multiplier, or format factor. On a 2× crop factor camera, for instance, a 50&nbsp;mm lens produces the same field of view as a 100&nbsp;mm lens used on a 35&nbsp;mm film camera, and can typically be handheld at <span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>⁄<span class="den">100</span></span> second.
</p><p>However, image stabilization does <i>not</i> prevent <a href="Motion_blur" class="mw-redirect" title="Motion blur">motion blur</a> caused by the movement of the subject or by extreme movements of the camera. Image stabilization is only designed for and capable of reducing blur that results from normal, minute shaking of a lens due to hand-held shooting. Some lenses and camera bodies include a secondary <a href="Panning_(camera)" title="Panning (camera)">panning</a> mode or a more aggressive 'active mode', both described in greater detail below under <a href="#Optical_image_stabilization">optical image stabilization</a>.

<p>An <b>optical image stabilizer</b> (<b>OIS</b>, <b>IS</b>, or <b>OS</b>) is a mechanism used in still or video cameras that stabilizes the recorded image by varying the optical path to the sensor. This technology is implemented in the lens itself, as distinct from <a href="#Sensor-shift">in-body image stabilization</a> (<i>IBIS</i>), which operates by moving the sensor as the final element in the optical path. The key element of all optical stabilization systems is that they stabilize the image projected on the sensor before the sensor converts the image into <a href="Digital_data" title="Digital data">digital</a> information. IBIS can have up to 5 <a href="Optical_axis" title="Optical axis">axis</a> of movement: X, Y, Roll, Yaw, and Pitch. IBIS has the added advantage of working with all lenses.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Benefits_of_OIS">Benefits of OIS</h4></div>
<p>Optical image stabilization prolongs the <a href="Shutter_speed" title="Shutter speed">shutter speed</a> possible for handheld photography by reducing the likelihood of blurring the image from shake during the same exposure time.
</p><p>For handheld <a href="Video_recording" class="mw-redirect" title="Video recording">video recording</a>, regardless of lighting conditions, optical image stabilization compensates for minor shakes whose appearance magnifies when watched on a large display such as a <a href="Television_set" title="Television set">television set</a> or <a href="Computer_monitor" title="Computer monitor">computer monitor</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>In Nikon and <a href="Canon_EF_lens_mount#Image_Stabilizer" title="Canon EF lens mount">Canon's implementation</a>, it works by using a floating lens element that is moved orthogonally to the optical axis of the <a href="Photographic_lens" class="mw-redirect" title="Photographic lens">lens</a> using electromagnets.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Vibration is detected using two piezoelectric <a href="Angular_velocity" title="Angular velocity">angular velocity</a> sensors (often called <a href="Gyroscope" title="Gyroscope">gyroscopic</a> sensors), one to detect horizontal movement and the other to detect vertical movement.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As a result, this kind of image stabilizer corrects only for pitch and yaw axis rotations,<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and cannot correct for rotation around the optical axis. Some lenses have a secondary mode that counteracts vertical-only camera shake. This mode is useful when using a <a href="Panning_(camera)" title="Panning (camera)">panning</a> technique. Some such lenses activate it automatically; others use a switch on the lens.
</p><p>To compensate for camera shake in shooting video while walking, Panasonic introduced Power Hybrid OIS+ with five-axis correction: axis rotation, horizontal rotation, vertical rotation, and horizontal and vertical motion.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Some Nikon VR-enabled lenses offer an "active" mode for shooting from a moving vehicle, such as a car or boat, which is supposed to correct for larger shakes than the "normal" mode.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, active mode used for normal shooting can produce poorer results than normal mode.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This is because active mode is optimized for reducing higher angular velocity movements (typically when shooting from a heavily moving platform using faster shutter speeds), where normal mode tries to reduce lower angular velocity movements over a larger amplitude and timeframe (typically body and hand movement when standing on a stationary or slowly moving platform while using slower shutter speeds).
</p><p>Most manufacturers suggest that the IS feature of a lens be turned off when the lens is mounted on a tripod as it can cause erratic results and is generally unnecessary. Many modern image stabilization lenses (notably Canon's more recent IS lenses) are able to auto-detect that they are tripod-mounted (as a result of extremely low vibration readings) and disable IS automatically to prevent this and any consequent image quality reduction.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The system also draws battery power, so deactivating it when not needed extends the battery charge.
</p><p>A disadvantage of <b>lens-based image stabilization</b> is cost. Each lens requires its own image stabilization system. Also, not every lens is available in an image-stabilized version. This is often the case for fast primes and wide-angle lenses. However, the fastest lens with image stabilisation is the <a href="Nocticron" title="Nocticron">Nocticron</a> with a speed of <i>f</i><span style="visibility:hidden; color:transparent; padding-left:2px">‍</span>/1.2. While the most obvious advantage for image stabilization lies with longer focal lengths, even normal and wide-angle lenses benefit from it in low-light applications.
</p><p>Lens-based stabilization also has advantages over in-body stabilization. In low-light or low-contrast situations, the autofocus system (which has no stabilized sensors) is able to work more accurately when the image coming from the lens is already stabilized. In cameras with optical viewfinders, the image seen by the photographer through the stabilized lens (as opposed to in-body stabilization) reveals more detail because of its stability, and it also makes correct framing easier. This is especially the case with longer telephoto lenses. This is not an issue for <a href="Mirrorless_interchangeable-lens_camera" class="mw-redirect" title="Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera">Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera</a> systems, because the sensor output to the screen or <a href="Electronic_viewfinder" title="Electronic viewfinder">electronic viewfinder</a> is stabilized.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Sensor-shift">Sensor-shift</h4></div>
<p>The sensor capturing the image can be moved in such a way as to counteract the motion of the camera, a technology often referred to as mechanical image stabilization. When the camera rotates, causing angular error, gyroscopes encode information to the actuator that moves the sensor.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The sensor is moved to maintain the projection of the image onto the image plane, which is a function of the focal length of the lens being used. Modern cameras can automatically acquire focal length information from modern lenses made for that camera. <a href="Minolta" title="Minolta">Minolta</a> and <a href="Konica_Minolta" title="Konica Minolta">Konica Minolta</a> used a technique called <a href="Anti-Shake" class="mw-redirect" title="Anti-Shake">Anti-Shake</a> (AS) now marketed as <a href="SteadyShot" title="SteadyShot">SteadyShot</a> (SS) in the <a href="Sony_%CE%B1" title="Sony α">Sony α</a> line and Shake Reduction (SR) in the <a href="Pentax" title="Pentax">Pentax</a> <a href="Pentax_cameras#K_Series_.28Digital.29" title="Pentax cameras">K-series</a> and <a href="Pentax_Q_series" title="Pentax Q series">Q series</a> cameras, which relies on a very precise angular rate sensor to detect camera motion.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="Olympus_Corporation" title="Olympus Corporation">Olympus</a> introduced image stabilization with their <a href="Olympus_E-510" title="Olympus E-510">E-510</a> <a href="Digital_single-lens_reflex_camera" title="Digital single-lens reflex camera">D-SLR</a> body, employing a system built around their Supersonic Wave Drive.<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Other manufacturers use <a href="Digital_signal_processor" title="Digital signal processor">digital signal processors</a> (DSP) to analyze the image on the fly and then move the sensor appropriately. Sensor shifting is also used in some cameras by Fujifilm, Samsung, Casio Exilim and Ricoh Caplio.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The advantage with moving the <a href="Image_sensor" title="Image sensor">image sensor</a>, instead of the lens, is that the image can be stabilized even on lenses made without stabilization. This may allow the stabilization to work with many otherwise-unstabilized lenses, and reduces the weight and complexity of the lenses. Further, when sensor-based image stabilization technology improves, it requires replacing only the camera to take advantage of the improvements, which is typically far less expensive than replacing all existing lenses if relying on lens-based image stabilization. Some sensor-based image stabilization implementations are capable of correcting camera <a href="Flight_dynamics" title="Flight dynamics">roll</a> rotation, a motion that is easily excited by pressing the shutter button. No lens-based system can address this potential source of image blur. A by-product of available "roll" compensation is that the camera can automatically correct for tilted horizons in the optical domain, provided it is equipped with an electronic spirit level, such as the Pentax K-7/K-5 cameras.
</p><p>One of the primary disadvantages of moving the image sensor itself is that the image projected to the viewfinder is not stabilized. Similarly, the image projected to a phase-detection autofocus system that is not part of the image sensor, if used, is not stabilized. This is not an issue on cameras that use an <a href="Electronic_viewfinder" title="Electronic viewfinder">electronic viewfinder</a> (EVF), since the image projected on that viewfinder is taken from the image sensor itself.
</p><p>Some, but not all, camera-bodies capable of in-body stabilization can be pre-set manually to a given focal length. Their stabilization system corrects as if that focal length lens is attached, so the camera can stabilize older lenses, and lenses from other makers. This isn't viable with zoom lenses, because their focal length is variable. Some adapters communicate focal length information from the maker of one lens to the body of another maker. Some lenses that do not report their focal length can be retrofitted with a chip which reports a pre-programmed focal-length to the camera body. Sometimes, none of these techniques work, and image-stabilization cannot be used with such lenses.
</p><p>In-body image stabilization requires the lens to have a larger output image circle because the sensor is moved during exposure and thus uses a larger part of the image. Compared to lens movements in optical image stabilization systems the sensor movements are quite large, so the effectiveness is limited by the maximum range of sensor movement, where a typical modern optically-stabilized lens has greater freedom. Both the speed and range of the required sensor movement increase with the focal length of the lens being used, making sensor-shift technology less suited for very long telephoto lenses, especially when using slower shutter speeds, because the available motion range of the sensor quickly becomes insufficient to cope with the increasing image displacement.
</p><p>In September 2023, Nikon has announced the release of <a href="Nikon_Zf" title="Nikon Zf">Nikon Z f</a>, which has the world’s first Focus-Point VR technology that centers the axis of sensor shift image stabilization at the autofocus point, rather than at the center of the sensor like the conventional sensor shift image stabilization system. This allows for vibration reduction at the focused point rather than just in the center of the image.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Digital_image_stabilization">Digital image stabilization</h3></div>

<p><b>Digital image stabilization</b>, also called <b>electronic image stabilization</b> (EIS), is used by some cameras, sometimes in addition to optical image stabilization.
</p><p>To digitally stabilize still photographs, several frames are captured in quick succession and the software picks the best. This is accomplished by measuring the hand movements using accelerometer and gyroscope sensors while capturing the frames, after which the frame captured during the least hand movement is picked.<sup id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-29"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>28<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Some camera software has a "night mode" feature for use in low light, which extends the duration for capturing the frames. The viewfinder asks the user to hold the camera steady for an extended duration so the camera can capture more information that it can process, and the software averages out the noise from multiple frames, resulting in a less noisy image.<sup id="cite_ref-30" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-30"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Videos are electronically stabilized by moving the cropped area that is read out from the image sensor for each frame to counteract the hand motion. This requires the resolution of the image sensor to exceed the resolution of the recorded video, and it reduces the field of view because the area on the image sensor outside the visible frame acts as a buffer against hand movements.<sup id="cite_ref-chereau13stablization_31-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-chereau13stablization-31"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>30<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>31<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This technique reduces distracting vibrations from videos by smoothing the transition from one frame to another.
</p><p>Unlike optical video stabilization, electronic video stabilization can not compensate motion blur caused by movement during the exposure of individual frames, which may result in an image seemingly losing focus as motion is compensated due to movement during the exposure times of individual frames. This effect is more visible in darker sceneries due to prolonged exposure times per frame.
</p><p>Neither optical nor electronic image stabilization can remove motion blur from objects moving during the exposure time of a frame. The only remedy against this is reducing the exposure time, requiring more external light and/or a higher light sensitivity setting, resulting in more noise.
</p><p>Some still camera manufacturers marketed their cameras as having digital image stabilization when they really only had a high-sensitivity mode that uses a short exposure time—producing pictures with less motion blur, but more noise.<sup id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-33"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>32<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It reduces blur when photographing something that is moving, as well as from camera shake.
</p><p>Others now also use digital signal processing (DSP) to reduce blur in stills, for example by sub-dividing the exposure into several shorter exposures in rapid succession, discarding blurred ones, re-aligning the sharpest sub-exposures and adding them together, and using the gyroscope to detect the best time to take each frame.<sup id="cite_ref-34" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-34"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>33<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-35"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>34<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-IMX378-XDA_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-IMX378-XDA-36"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Stabilizing_the_camera_body">Stabilizing the camera body</h3></div>

<p>A technique that requires no additional capabilities of any camera body–lens combination consists of stabilizing the entire camera body externally rather than using an internal method. This is achieved by attaching a <a href="Gyroscope" title="Gyroscope">gyroscope</a> to the camera body, usually using the camera's built-in tripod mount. This lets the external gyro (gimbal) stabilize the camera, and is typically used in photography from a moving vehicle, when a lens or camera offering another type of image stabilization is not available.<sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>41<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>A common way to stabilize moving cameras after approx. year 2015 is by using a <a href="Camera_stabilizer" title="Camera stabilizer">camera stabilizer</a> such as a stabilized remote camera head. The camera and lens are mounted in a remote controlled camera holder which is then mounted on anything that moves, such as rail systems, cables, cars or helicopters. An example of a remote stabilized head that is used to stabilize moving TV cameras that are broadcasting live is the Newton stabilized head.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Another technique for stabilizing a video or motion picture camera body is the <a href="Steadicam" title="Steadicam">Steadicam</a> system, which isolates the camera from the operator's body using a harness and a camera boom with a counterweight.

<p>A camera stabilizer is any device or object that externally stabilizes the camera. This can refer to a <a href="Steadicam" title="Steadicam">Steadicam</a>, a <a href="Tripod" title="Tripod">tripod</a>, the camera operator's hand, or a combination of these.
</p><p>In close-up photography, using rotation sensors to compensate for changes in pointing direction becomes insufficient. Moving, rather than tilting, the camera up/down or left/right by a fraction of a millimeter becomes noticeable if you are trying to resolve millimeter-size details on the object. Linear accelerometers in the camera, coupled with information such as the lens focal length and focused distance, can feed a secondary correction into the drive that moves the sensor or optics, to compensate for linear as well as rotational shake.
