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 (pg. 28) 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.

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)

You can light dark subjects or areas even brighter than they would be under good natural lighting.

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.

Use “SLOW” only in dark areas.

The Manual Focus indication may appear and flash when “SLOW” is in use.

If the image is out of focus, adjust manually. It is also recommended that you use a tripod, if possible.

VIDEO ECHO

Adds a “ghost” to the subject, giving your recording a “fantasy” feeling.
