Shooting Screens
Sometimes when shooting TVs or computer monitors a horizontal bar can be seen across those screens in the viewfinder. There are two ways of removing the noise bar from the picture depending on the frame frequency of the display. For displays with the same frame frequency as the camera, for example TV sets, use the
Clean Scan
Carry out the Clean Scan function as follows:
a.press the Clean Scan button at the front of the camcorder for about two seconds to directly access the variable exposure (clean scan) function. The Clean Scan submenu appears in the viewfinder.

If the frame frequencies of camera and monitor are different use the clean scan function.
CRT Exposure
A third possibility can arise when shooting a monitor whose synchronization is locked to the camera's. Stripes might be visible in the picture of the monitor. (This is more usual with 16:9 cameras.) To remove these disturbing line pairing effects between monitor and camera lines, select the CRT option with the Exposure time switch.
