The screen becomes slightly dark in the High Speed Shutter mode. Use in well-lit situations.

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

This function cannot be activated during Night-Alive ( pg. 18) (GR-SXM535/ SXM335 only).

The “FOG” mode cannot be used when the “VIDEO ECHO” mode ( pg. 21) is activated (GR-SXM535/SXM335 only).

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

FG : 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. The following happens when Twilight mode is selected:

Auto gain control is turned off.

White Balance is set to “:FINE” (day mode), but can also be manually changed to another mode ( pg. 29).

Auto Focus becomes available only in the range of10 m (32 ft.) to infinity. To focus when the subject-to-camera distance is less than 10 m (32 ft.), use manual focusing ( pg. 28).
