[FOCUS ASSIST]
The focus assist function magnifies the image that appears at the center of the screen to
help you focus manually ( 47).
Using the focus assist function will not affect the recordings. The focus assist function
will be cancelled when you start recording.
[FOCUS PRI.]: When the focus priority is activated, the camcorder records a still image
only after the focus has been adjusted automatically. You can also select which AF frames
to use.
[ ON:AiAF]: One or more AF frames out of the nine frames available are automatically
selected and the focus is fixed on them.
[ ON:CENTER]: A single focusing frame appears in the center of the screen and the
focus is automatically fixed on it.
[ OFF]: No AF frame will appear and the still image will be recorded immediately after
you press .
When the recording mode is set to [ FIREWORKS], focus priority is automatically set
to [ OFF].
[IMG STAB]: The image stabilizer compensates for camcorder shake even at full
telephoto.
The image stabilizer is designed to compensate for a normal degree of camcorder
shake.
We recommend setting the image stabilizer to [ OFF] when using a tripod.
[FRAME RATE]: Selects the frame rate to be used when recording.
[ PF25]: 25 frames per second, progressive. Using this frame rate will give your
recordings a cinematic look. When combined with the [ CINE MODE] recording
program ( 42), the cinematic look will be enhanced.
[A.SL SHUTTER]: The camcorder
automatically uses slow shutter speeds to
obtain brighter recordings in places with
insufficient lighting.
The setting will not change even if
you set the camcorder to
mode.
In mode, set the flash mode to
(flash off).
If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [ OFF].
If (camcorder shake warning) appears, we recommend stabilizing the camcorder, for
example, by mounting it on a tripod.
[REVIEW]: Selects the time to display a still image after it has been recorded to the
memory.
If you press while reviewing a still image it will continue to be displayed
indefinitely. Press halfway to return to the normal display.
