A system for adjusting the scanning pattern of an electron beam in a scanning electron microscope to decrease image sensitivity to vibrations. In the system, a seismometer is connected to sense displacement velocity caused by vibrations, an integrator is provided for integrating signals from the seisometer, and a phase compensation system is provided for operating upon the integrated signals to provide phase compensated signals that are substantialy 180 degrees out of phase with the sensed vibrations. The phase-compensated signals are used for adjusting the normal scanning pattern of the electron beam microscope to reduce the effects of the sensed vibrations on images provided by the microscope.
