When you select high gain levels, the picture may flicker slightly. The 36.0 dB gain level in particular, allows you to shoot video with a higher sensitivity but is more prone to the appearance of noise and artifacts (white dots, vertical streaks or blocking).
When the AGC switch is set to ON you can activate the gain limit to prevent the camcorder from setting a level higher than a preset limit between 3 dB and 15 dB.
Open the menu and select [CAMERA SETUP]. Select [AGC LIMIT], set the maximum gain level and close the menu.
