Exposure Control

This feature automatically adjusts the iris for the best available picture quality, but you can override it and make the adjustment manually. Manual exposure adjustment is recommended in the following situations:

When shooting using reverse lighting or when the background is too bright.

When shooting on a reflective natural background such as at the beach or when skiing.

When the background is overly dark or the subject light.

1.Press in the Lock button while setting the Power switch to M (manual record). (The POWER indicator comes on.)

2.Press EXPOSURE. (The exposure control icon appears.)

To brighten the image, rotate the MENU dial downward. (The exposure control level counter increases (maximum +06)).

To darken the image, rotate the MENU dial upward. (The exposure control level counter decreases (maximum –06)).

3.Press in the MENU dial to lock it in.

Notes:

To return to the automatic exposure, press EXPOSURE twice or set the Power switch to A (automatic record).

To readjust exposure, repeat the procedure from step 2.
