Program AE With Special Effects
Indicator Parameter Description
OFF Deactivates Program AE with special effects.
NIGHTSCOPE
Makes dark subjects or areas even brighter than they would be under
good natural lighting. Although the recorded image is not grainy, it
may look as if it is strobing due to the slow shutter speed.
The shutter speed is automatically adjusted to provide up to 30
times sensitivity.
” appears beside “ ” while the shutter speed is being
automatically adjusted.
NOTES:
During Night-Scope, the following functions or settings cannot be
activated and its indicator blinks or goes out:
•Some modes of “Program AE With Special Effects” (pg. 41).
•“GAIN UP” in CAMERA Menu. (pg. 44)
•“DIS” in MANUAL Menu. (pg. 45)
During Night-Scope, it may be difficult to bring the camcorder into
focus. To prevent this, use of a tripod is recommended.
SHUTTER 1/50
(Variable Shutter Speed)
The shutter speed is fixed at 1/50th of a second. Black bands that
usually appear when shooting a TV screen become narrower.
SHUTTER 1/120
The shutter speed is fixed at 1/120th of a second. The flickering that
occurs when shooting under a fluorescent light or mercury-vapour
lamp is reduced.
SPORTS
(Variable Shutter Speed:1/250 – 1/4000)
This setting allows fast-moving images to be captured one frame at a
time, for vivid, stable slow-motion playback. The faster the shutter
speed, the darker the picture becomes. Use the shutter function
under good lighting conditions.
SNOW Compensates for subjects that may otherwise appear too dark when
shooting in extremely bright surroundings such as in the snow.
SPOTLIGHT
Compensates for subjects that may otherwise appear too bright when
shooting under extremely strong direct lighting such as spotlights.
NOTE:
