NOTES
•The image stabilizer may not be able to successfully eliminate all blur if the camcorder or the subject is moving too much.
•The image stabilizer may not work well on subjects with low contrast, with a recurring, repetitive pattern or without vertical lines.
•When [Image Stabilizer] is set to [ Dynamic], if the background’s
movement does not appear natural, select [ Standard] or [
Off].
The camcorder will start recording 3 seconds before you press Start/Stop , ensuring you do not miss important shooting opportunities. This is especially useful when it is difficult to predict when to start recording.
