If the degree of camcorder shake is too high, the image stabilizer may not be able to fully compensate. 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].

[Flicker Reduction]: If the screen starts to flicker when recording movies under fluorescent lights, change the setting to reduce the effect.

Flicker reduction can be activated only when the recording program is set to [ Programmed AE.]

[Auto Slow Shutter]: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter speeds to obtain brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting.

Minimum shutter speed used: 1/25; 1/12 when the frame rate is set to [ PF25].

The auto slow shutter can only be activated when the recording pro- gram is set to [ Programmed AE], but the setting will not change even

if you set the camcorder to mode.

If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [ Off].

If (camcorder shake warning) appears, we recommend stabilizing the camcorder, for example, by mounting it on a tripod.

[Auto Backlight Correction]: When shooting subjects with a strong light source behind them, you can have the camcorder automatically correct for the backlight.

In mode, auto backlight correction will automatically be set to [ On].
