SHUTTER 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.

SHUTTER 1/120: The shutter speed is fixed at 1/120th of a second. The flickering that occurs when shooting under a fluorescent light or mercury-vapour lamp is reduced.

SHUTTER 1/250/ SHUTTER 1/500/ SHUTTER 1/1000/ SHUTTER 1/2000/ SHUTTER 1/4000: These settings allow fast- moving images to be captured one frame at a time, for vivid, stable slow-motion playback by fixing shutter speed variables. Use these settings when an automatic adjustment does not work well, using SPORTS mode. The faster the shutter speed, the darker the picture becomes. Use the shutter function under good lighting conditions.

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.

MIRROR: Creates a mirror image on the right half of the screen, juxtaposed to the normal image on the other half.
