Adjusting the shutter speed
You can adjust the shutter speed manually to suit your preference and with its shutter
speed fixed.
(1) Set the AUTO LOCK selector to the center (auto lock release) position while the
POWER switch is set to CAMERA or MEMORY/NETWORK(DCR-TRV950
only). (p. 67)
(2) Press SHUTTER SPEED. The shutter speed indicator appears on the screen.
(3) Turn the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial to select the desired speed. The available
shutter speed ranges from 1/4 to 1/10000. As you turn the dial, the shutter
speed changes as follows:
[CAMERA] 1/4 y 1/8 y 1/15 y 1/30 y ... y 1/4000 y 1/6000
y 1/10000
[MEMORY/NETWORK] 1/60 y 1/90 y 1/100 y 1/125 y 1/180
y 1/250 y 1/350 y 1/500
The shutter speed increases when a smaller number is selected. The size of the
picture displayed on the screen also increases. Conversely, the shutter speed is
slower when a larger number is selected. The picture displayed on the screen
will thus decrease in size.

Set the AUTO LOCK selector to AUTO LOCK or press SHUTTER SPEED. The shutter
speed indicator disappears.
