There's a sensor inside that detects when the eyepiece is being covered. I found that I had to keep my eye very close to it, because it tended to flicker. Steady Shot works as advertised and without being conscious of its existence. The only photo that I took where it failed to perform was when I tried to snap a picture of a Canada Goose as it was taking flight. I won't copy the manual for you here, but I will mention that the FD95 is loaded with all the expected Sony functions, many of which are accessible from the extensive onscreen menus.
Navigation is easy with the joy button on the back of the camera.
Hooking it up to the TV and watching a slide show is almost as easy, and a great way to end a day of shooting. I personally don't have a need to record very many 60 second movies. To me, the whole point is to create still images, but it's sometimes nice to capture those special moments when you don't have a camcorder nearby. All rights reserved. Copyright Notice .
