Lens-shift stabilization is a technology used in cameras to reduce the effects of camera shake during photography or videography. It works by physically shifting the lens elements to counteract unwanted movements, helping to keep the image steady and clear. This is particularly useful in low-light conditions or when using long focal lengths, where even small movements can lead to blurry images. This stabilization method is often found in DSLR and mirrorless cameras, as well as in some smartphones. By compensating for motion, lens-shift stabilization allows photographers and videographers to capture sharper images and smoother videos without needing a tripod or other stabilizing equipment.
