[A.SL SHUTTER]: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter speeds to obtain
brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting.
The camcorder uses shutter speeds down to 1/30 (1/15 in mode).
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.
[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. The image stabilizer may not be able to successfully eliminate all blur if
the camcorder or the subject is moving too much.
The image stabilizer may not be effective when recording in dark places with
[A.SL SHUTTER] set to [ ON] or using the [ NIGHT] recording program.
The image stabilizer may not work well on subjects with low contrast, with a
recurring, repetitive pattern or without vertical lines.
The image stabilizer cannot be turned off when the mode switch is set to .
We recommend setting the image stabilizer to [ OFF] when using a tripod.
