Using the ND Filter
When recording in bright surroundings, the camcorder will set a small aperture value and the picture
may appear blurred. Turn the 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 high shutter speed, or use the Av mode and set a
small aperture value.
Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. In such case, setting
a custom white balance may be effective ( 63).
