Image for In-lens stabilization

In-lens stabilization

In-lens stabilization, also known as in-lens image stabilization, is a technology built into camera lenses that reduces the blur caused by unsteady hands or minor camera movements. It works by detecting small shifts or vibrations and automatically compensating for them through internal lens elements that move in the opposite direction. This results in clearer, sharper images, especially in low-light situations or when using zooms where camera shake is more noticeable. Essentially, in-lens stabilization helps you take steady photos without needing a tripod, improving image quality in challenging conditions.
