4-5. Understanding user customizable image stabilizer 
Much higher performance is required of image stabilizers for 4K/UHD cameras because even a 
small amount of shake can easily be seen when working in these resolutions.    The AG-UX series 
is equipped with nine times higher stabilization performance achieved through an expanded 
stabilization range.    The stabilization characteristics can also be customized to meet professional 
requirements.

Customizing image stabilization characteristic 
 
1.   MENU > SW SETUP > CUSTOM O.I.S : ON 
2.  MENU > SW SETUP > Set “BLUR AMPLITUDE” and “BLUR FREQ” as explained below. 
 
 
 
BLUR AMPLITUDE adjustment 
 
- Factory default setting = 3 (adjustable range: 1 - - - 3 - - - 5) 
- Choose smaller values when motion of camera work is not so large (suitable for steady shots). 
- Choose larger values when recording while moving. 
- When increasing this value, OIS can compensate small to large shake levels but is not suitable 
for steady shots. 
 
 
BLUR FREQUENCY adjustment 
 
- Factory default setting = 2 (adjustable range: 1, 2, 3) 
 
1: Image stabilizer actively responds from rapid camera shaking to slow shaking. This mode is 
suitable for steady shots. 
2: Image stabilizer actively responds for relatively rapid shaking. 
3: Image stabilizer effect weakens or strengthens dynamically. Effect level becomes stronger 
for rapid shaking, and becomes weaker for slow shaking making it suitable for scenes that 
frequently use panning.
