Exposure Adjustment

At times, backlit subjects may appear too dark (underexposed) or subjects under very strong lights may appear too bright or glaring (overexposed). In such cases, adjusting the exposure will correct this. This camcorder features a dedicated recording program, [y Manual Exposure], for adjusting the exposure manually. However, you can also adjust the exposure when using other recording programs.
