The left hand kanji loosely translates as "Medium" and that the right hand one translates as "Feeling".
- Left set is IS Central Position
- Right set is IS Shift.
Notes
Central position values tend to be near zero (E1 = -31 and E9 = -23 in decimal) and IS Shift values tend to be midway between 0 and 255 (7B = 123 in decimal).
So the typical values in the photo above are:
- Left = IS Central Position
- Right = IS Shift
Some lenses have IS Lables with eight figures to enter for IS Shift and Gyro rank, while others have only two.
The IS Lable above is for the 'EF-S 18-200mm F3.5-5.6 IS' which doesn't have a gyro rack so:
- Left column = Pitch and Yaw for IS Central Position
- Right column (with the four figures) = Pitch and Yaw for IS Shift
George Barroso / FantasTEC Photo Service:
“The IS setting label provided with the Canon replacement part, made perfect sense once I was in the software.
Its all there, very easy and all alignments fell right in. Testing the lens after the repair (new IS unit) and alignment was perfect.”
