EXPOSURE

Manual exposure adjustment is recommended in the following situations:

When shooting using reverse lighting or when the background is too bright.

When shooting on a reflective natural background such as at the beach or in the snow.

When the background is overly dark or the subject light.

1)Rotate the MENU Wheel 1 to select “MANUAL”, then press it.

2)To brighten the image, rotate the MENU Wheel 1 downward.

To darken the image, rotate the MENU Wheel 1 upward.

The exposure control level increases/decreases (maximum ±06).

P.AE (Programme AE with special effects)

In the “High Speed Shutter” or “Sports” modes, picture colour may be adversely affected if the subject is lit by alternating discharge-type light sources such as flourescent or mercury-vapour lights.

OFF: To cancel the effect.

SPORTS: High shutter speed clearly captures fast-moving action.

ND EFFECT: A black mist darkens the picture, as when an ND filter is used. Helps to counter the effects of glare on the subject.

FOG: Makes the picture look misty white, as when an external fog filter is attached to the lens. Softens the image and gives it a “fantasy” look.

TWILIGHT: Dusk, twilight scenery, fireworks, etc., look more natural and dramatic. In this mode, the Auto Focus ( pg. 11) and S.LX ( pg. 15) may not work.

1/2000 (1/2000 sec. High Speed Shutter):

Captures faster action than Sports mode. The screen becomes slightly dark. Use in well-lit environment.

SUNSET: Makes scenes look like a sunset with reddish tint.

SURF&SNOW: Compensates for subjects that may otherwise appear too dark when shooting in extremely bright surroundings such as in the snow or beach. In this mode, the fast- moving images can be recorded since the shutter speed becomes fast.

DIGIFECT (Digital Effects)

OFF: To cancel the effect.

SEPIA: Recorded scenes have a brownish tint like old photos. Combine this with WIDE in CAMERA MENU for a classic look.

B/W:MONO: Like black and white films, your footage is shot in B/W. Combine this with WIDE in CAMERA MENU for a classic look.

B. FILTER: Recorded scenes have a bluish tint.

R. FILTER: Recorded scenes have a reddish tint.

SOLARI: The picture is recorded with an effect similar to a painting.
