[ PROGRAM AE]
The camcorder automatically adjusts the
aperture and shutter speed to obtain the
optimal exposure for the subject.
[ SHUTTER-PRIO.AE]
Set the shutter speed value. The
camcorder automatically sets the
appropriate aperture value. Use a high
shutter speed to record fast moving
subjects or a slow shutter speed to add
motion blur, emphasizing the feel of
movement.
[ APERTURE-PRIO.AE]
Set the aperture value. The camcorder
automatically sets the appropriate shutter
speed. Use low aperture values (larger
lens opening) to softly blur the background
in a portrait or high aperture values
(smaller lens opening) to get a wider depth
of field, giving a sharp focus all throughout
a landscape.
