Recording
Using the ND Filter
When recording under bright conditions, the
camcorder closes down the aperture. When the
aperture value used is too large, the picture may
appear blurred. Turn the built-in ND filter on/off
according to the screen display.
When using a recording program other than M Manual and if the AGC switch is set to ON, the following
displays appear:
* If you have no external ND filter available, use the Tv mode and set a faster shutter speed, or use the Av mode and set
a smaller aperture.
Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. Setting a custom
white balance may be effective in such case ( 66).
