Hello all,

When shooting from tripod at degrees from 45 to 90 (to horizont) there is a vibration of video caused by O.I.S. I have tried to turn O.I.S. OFF and ON - no matter.

Conclusion: Panasonic TM700 has a vibration of video picture at degrees from 45 to 90, upward and downward. Turning OFF and ON of OIS does not help.

See a good example:

Disappointed Panasonic TM-700 Test -- Shaking when face downward on Vimeo

I suppose - this is a firmware issue.

We should aware: PANASONIC NEVER PRODUCE AN UPDATE IF WE DO NOT SEND THEM A FEEDBACK ABOUT OUR ISSUES!

I have posted a question about this issue to Panasonic internet service a few days ago.

Panasonic needs a statistics before firmware production...

If you have this issue, please post there and notifiy Panasonic via their Service site form.

I don't think it's a firmware issue, rather it is a OIS hardware limitation, but I'll try this with some other camcorders,

Hi, Buba,

Why do you think that this is a hardware issue?
If this is a hardware then it will never be repaired....

for what its worth, one of my HMC150s exhibits jumpy video with OIS turned on.

is the TM700 full raster or pixel shift? it may be OIS or perhaps a pixel shift implementation issue.

frankly i would not know, but OIS turned off usually means it is OFF, at least coming from the nikon and canon gear i have used.

personally i have all IS/VR lenses (same thing) and i have never once used it. and ive never seen anything like your example with it either on or off.
