148 Additional Information
• Using focus assistance will not affect the recordings. It will be cancelled
automatically after 4 seconds or when you start recording.
[Auto Slow Shutter]: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter
speeds to obtain brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting.
• Minimum shutter speed used: 1/25; 1/12 when the frame rate is set to
[D PF25].
• The auto slow shutter can only be activated when the recording pro-
gram is set to [A Programmed AE], but the setting will not change even
if you set the camcorder to mode.
• If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [B Off].
•If Y (camcorder shake warning) appears, we recommend stabilizing
the camcorder, for example, by mounting it on a tripod.
• When the recording program is set to [r Underwater] or [s Surface],
the auto slow shutter is automatically set to [B Off].
[Wind Screen]: The camcorder automatically reduces the background
sound of wind when recording outdoors.
• Some low-frequency sounds will be suppressed along with the sound
of wind. When recording in surroundings unaffected by wind or if you
want to record low-frequency sounds, we recommend setting the wind
screen to [B Off Z].
[Microphone Attenuator]: Helps prevent audio distortions due to high
audio recording levels.
• Set the microphone attenuator to [A On V] when the audio
recording level (0 77) is set correctly but the audio still sounds dis-
torted. When the microphone attenuator is activated, V appears on
the screen.
• When the recording program is set to [r Underwater] or [s Surface],
the microphone attenuator is automatically set to [B Off].
[Surround Mic Directionality]: Sets the directionality mode of the optional
SM-V1 Surround Microphone.
[z Surround]: Records 5.1ch surround sound.
[w Zoom]: Records 5.1 audio channels. Additionally, the audio is linked
to the zoom position. The larger the subject appears on the screen, the
louder the sound will be as well.

that is most sensitive to sound coming directly from the front of the cam-
corder/microphone.
