Program AE With Special Effects
Indicator Parameter Description
OFF Deactivates Program AE with special effects.
SHUTTER 1/50
(Variable Shutter Speed)
The shutter speed is fixed at 1/50th of a second. Black bands that
usually appear when shooting a TV screen become narrower.
SHUTTER 1/120
The shutter speed is fixed at 1/120th of a second. The flickering that
occurs when shooting under a fluorescent light or mercury-vapour
lamp is reduced.
SPORTS
(Variable Shutter Speed: 1/250 – 1/4000)
This setting allows fast-moving images to be captured one frame at a
time, for vivid, stable slow-motion playback. The faster the shutter
speed, the darker the picture becomes. Use the shutter function
under good lighting conditions.
SNOW
Compensates for subjects that may otherwise appear too dark when
shooting in extremely bright surroundings such as in the snow.
SPOTLIGHT
Compensates for subjects that may otherwise appear too bright when
shooting under extremely strong direct lighting such as spotlights.
NOTE:
“SPOTLIGHT” has the same effect as –3 with the exposure control.
(pg. 56)
TWILIGHT
Makes evening scenes look more natural. White Balance
(pg. 43, 58) is automatically set to “ ”, but can be changed to
your desired setting. When Twilight is chosen, the camcorder
automatically adjusts the focus from approx. 10 m to infinity. From
less than 10 m, adjust the focus manually. The flash does not fire in
this mode.
SEPIA
Recorded scenes have a brownish tint like old photos. Combine this
with the Cinema mode for a classic look.
MONOTONE
Like classic black and white films, your footage is shot in B/W. Used
together with the Cinema mode, it enhances the “classic film” effect.
CLASSIC FILM* Gives recorded scenes a strobe effect.
STROBE* Your recording looks like a series of consecutive snapshots.
