Manual shooting

Manually adjusting the shutter speed

The shutter speed can be set using two methods. One is a method that specifies the time (where a time such as 1/250 sec. is designated), and the other is a method that specifies the frequency (where synchro scan, 60 Hz, etc. is designated).

When shooting a TV screen or PC monitor screen, the horizontal noise generated when the screen is shot can be minimized by adjusting the frequency to the screen frequency using synchro scan.

Synchro scan can be designated in the user mode only.

When performing the operations using the

accessory wireless remote control

Perform the adjustments on the Camera Setting menu. For further details, refer to the [Step], [Shutter Mode] and [Step/Synchro] items on page 47.
