Using the ND Filter

ND

FILTER

On bright days or when recording very bright scenes, despite the iris being at its smallest aperture, blurring of the image may occur. If this happens, using the ND filter should remove this problem.

Turn the ND filter on by pressing the ND FILTER button.

• ND is shown continuously in the display while the ND filter is turned on.

ND ON flashes in the display to advise you to switch the ND filter on. (However it doesn’t appear in the Manual mode or during exposure lock.)

ND OFF with the “OFF” flashing warns you that the ND filter is no longer suitable for the current conditions. If this warning appears, turn the ND filter off by pressing the ND FILTER button again.

Notes:

You cannot turn the ND filter on/off during exposure lock or while the PHOTO button is pressed halfway down.

The camcorder remembers your selection if you turn the standby lever to LOCK. However, it resets to

the off setting if you slide the POWER switch to OFF.
