Sports mode

This mode reduces Camcorder shakes for slow-motion playback or playback pause of recorded pictures.

During normal playback, the image movement may not look smooth.

Avoid recording under fluorescent light, mercury light or sodium light because the color and brightness of the playback image may change.

If you record a subject illuminated with strong light or a highly reflective subject, vertical lines of light may appear.

If the brightness is insufficient, the sports mode does not function. The [5] indication flashes.

If this mode is used indoors, the screen may flicker.

Portrait mode

If this mode is used indoors, the screen may flicker. If so, change the scene mode setting to [OFF].

Low light mode

Extremely dark scenes may not be able to be recorded finely.

Spotlight mode

If the recording subject is extremely bright, the recorded image may become whitish and

the periphery of the recorded image extremely dark.

Surf & snow mode

If the recording subject is extremely bright, the recorded image may become whitish.
