How do you turn the stabilization on? Is the switch supposed to be on the I or the O ?
I did a search but didn't come up with anything.

Thanks, so O means off, not on.
And the 1 above on on the Stabilizer Mode switch is for normal holding, where 2 is for panning?

The stabiliser mode is switch is not Boolean, it is simply indicating mode 1 or 2.

I believe Boolean is used because it is multi-lingual - no need to print on and off in loads of languages, and it takes up less space.

Look at all the electrical items you have, chances are they use this system
