FEATURES FOR RECORDING
LED Light can be used to brighten the
subject in the dark place during video
recording or D.S.C. shooting.
1 Press LIGHT repeatedly to change the
setting.
OFF: Turns off the light.
ON: The light is on always. ( appears.)
AUTO: The light turns on automatically
when dark. ( appears.)
2 Press the Recording Start/Stop Button to start video
recording or SNAPSHOT to shoot a still image.
NOTES:
Be careful not to point the LED Light directly to eyes.
If the light does not reach the subject, the Night-Scope
function will be activated, and makes it possible to shoot
the subject brighter.
There is a difference in the brightness of the images shot
between the centre area which is illuminated by the LED
Light and the surrounding areas (which will be darker).
Since subjects are shot at a reduced shutter speed when
the LED Light setting is ON, they will appear slightly
blurred.
Once the camcorder is set, the camcorder operator can
become part of the scene in a more natural way, adding
the final touch to a memorable picture.
