SHUTTER (Variable Shutter (Speed)

CLASSIC FILM

1/60–The shutter speed is fixed at 1/60th 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-vapor 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 conditions.

Gives recorded scenes a strobe effect.

STROBE

Your recording looks like a series of consecutive snapshots.

TWILIGHT

Makes evening scenes look more natural. White Balance (☞ pg. 49) is initially set to , but can be changed to your desired setting. Also when Twilight is chosen, the manual focus indication appears.

SEPIA

Recorded scenes have a brownish tint like old photos. Combine this with the Cinema mode for a classic look.

B/W MONOTONE

Like classic black and white films, your footage is shot in B/W. Used together with the Wide Cinema function, it enhances the “classic film” effect.

SLOW (Slow Shutter)

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

1	x 4 = 4 times sensitivity
	(shutter speed 1/15 sec.)
2	x 10 = 10 times sensitivity
	(shutter speed 1/6 sec.)

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.
