    Hi all. Can someone please tell me what IS START means. I have been looking to change the depth of field button to something else as I do not use it. This setting came up as a option but I cannot find out what it is.

    IS refers to "image stabilization"
    on some lenses i think there is a mode 3 where you can manually apply image stabilization in a correction mode, i don't have the 90D so my info might not be the best here

    Thanks for that. I thought just the same, but when I checked it appears the 90D does not have image stabilisation.

    Thanks every for your help. I think I have this sorted now. It appears the 90D does have image stabilisation built in, but only for video. Now I know I can use the depth of field button for something else. Every one stay safe.
