SHUTTER (Variable Shutter Speed)
1/50 –The shutter speed is fixed at 1/50th of a
second. Black bands that usually appear when
shooting a TV screen become narrower.
1/100 –The shutter speed is fixed at 1/100th of a
second. The flickering that occurs when shooting
under a fluorescent light or mercury-vapour lamp
is reduced.
1/250, 1/500 –These settings allow 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 condi-
tions.
TWILIGHT
Makes evening scenes look more natural.
White Balance (੬ pg. 30) is initially 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.
SLOW (Slow Shutter)
Lights dark subjects or areas even brighter than
they would be under good natural lighting. Use
“SLOW” only in dark areas.
SLOW 4X
The Shutter Speed is set to 1/12.5th of a second to
quadruple the sensitivity.
SLOW 10X
The Shutter Speed is set to 1/5th of a second to
provide 10 times the sensitivity.
NOTES:
●
When using “SLOW”, the image takes on a strobe-
like effect.
●
If the manual focus indicator blinks when “SLOW”
is used, adjust focus manually and use a tripod.
VIDEO ECHO
Adds a “ghost” to the subject, giving your
recording a “fantasy” feeling. Zoom magnification
of over 10X is not available.
IMPORTANT:
Some modes of Program AE with special effects
cannot be used with certain Fade/Wipe Effects
(
੬
pg. 26). If an unusable mode is selected, its
indicator blinks.
NOTE:
Program AE with special effects can be changed
during recording or during Record-Standby.
