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-
Alive 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.
This feature is useful for recording or playing
back precious or hard-to-see moments at a slow
speed. Sound is recorded and played back in
real time.
