Recording

[i.Dynamic] (Intelligent dynamic range control)

Applicable modes:

Contrast and exposure will be adjusted automatically when there is a big difference in brightness between the background and subject, to bring the image close to how you see.

Settings: [HIGH]/[STANDARD]/[LOW]/[OFF]

Note

Even when the [Sensitivity] is set to [100], [Sensitivity] may be set higher than [100] if the picture is taken with [i.Dynamic] set to valid.

Compensation effect may not be achieved depending on the conditions.

[LOW], [STANDARD], or [HIGH] represents the maximum range of effect.

[Min. Shtr Speed]

Applicable modes:

You can take a picture brightly in dark places by setting [Min. Shtr Speed] slower. Also, you can set it faster to reduce the blur of the subject.

Settings: [AUTO], [1/250], [1/125], [1/60], [1/30], [1/15], [1/8], [1/4], [1/2]¢, [1]¢

(DMC-FZ60)

¢When [Sensitivity] is set to [2000], [2500], or [3200], the camera sets the shutter speed at [1/4].

Note

This should usually be set to [AUTO] to take pictures. (When you select a minimum shutter speed other than [AUTO], [ ] appears on the screen.)

When [AUTO] is selected, shutter speed may be set up to 1 second when there is not much jitter to adjust with the [Stabilizer], or when [Stabilizer] is set to [OFF].

Setting [Min. Shtr Speed] to slower speed might increase the chance of jitter, so we recommend using a tripod and the Self-timer for taking pictures.

Setting [Min. Shtr Speed] to faster speed might make the picture darker, so we recommend recording the picture in well-lit area. If correct exposure cannot be achieved, [ ] will flash in red when the shutter button is pressed halfway.
