3Movie Menu Function Settings

[Manual]

: For advanced users. You can adjust the recording

 

level manually.

 

Select [Rec. level] and while looking at the level

 

meter, press the <YA>/<ZO> button to adjust.

 

The loudest sound will be displayed for approx. 3 sec.

 

Adjust so that the level meter on the right of “12” lights

 

up occasionally. If the level meter lights up near “0”,

 

the sound may be distorted.

[Disable]

: Sound is not recorded.

[Wind filter]

When set to [Enable], it reduces wind noise when there is wind outdoors. This feature takes effect only with the built-in microphone.

Note that [Enable] will also reduce low bass sounds, so set this function to [Disable] when there is no wind. It will record a more natural sound than with [Enable].

[Attenuator]

Even if you set [Sound recording] to [Auto] or [Manual] and shoot, sound distortion may still result if there is a very loud sound. In such a case, setting it to [Enable] is recommended.

The sound volume balance between L (left) and R (right) cannot be adjusted.

Both L and R record audio at a 48 kHz/16-bit sampling rate.
