Using the Electronic Image Stabilizer (EIS)
When you use zoom to record a magnified subject image, it will correct fuzziness in the recorded image.
1Press the MENU button,
choose “EIS” on the
“Camera Functions
Setup” menu screen, and
then press the A
button.
2Choose “On” or “Off”, and then press the A
button.
3Press the MENU button to end setting.
lChecking whether EIS is On or Off
You can check whether EIS is On or Off by the on-
screen information display.
After recording with EIS set to “Off”, it is
recommended that you return the setting to “On”
and then turn the DVD Video Camera off, unless
you normally record with EIS “Off” setting.
Note:
•The EIS setting will be stored in memory even when the
DVD Video Camera is turned off.
•It is recommended that you specify “EIS: Off” when using
the DVD Video Camera on a desk or tripod.
•When “EIS: On” is specified, there will be a slight
difference between the actual movement and the
movement on screen.
•Gross camera shake may not be entirely corrected even
if “EIS: On” is specified. Firmly hold the DVD Video
Camera with both hands.
•When you record pictures with 10x or more magnification
and the EIS is “On” in dim places, after-images may stand
out. In this case, we recommend using a tripod and
turning the EIS to “Off” (only for VDR-M53PP/VDR-
M55PP).
•The EIS function cannot be used when still images are
recorded (only for VDR-M75PP/VDR-M95PP).
•The EIS function will work only during movie recording.
(only for VDR-M75PP/VDR-M95PP).
Reducing Wind Noise during Recording (Wind Cut)
When recording sound from the microphone built into this DVD Video Camera, you can reduce wind noise
in recording.
If “Wind Cut: ON” is specified, the low-frequency components in the sound picked up by the microphone
will be cut off during recording: This makes it easier to hear the target voice or sound during playback.
1Press the MENU button,
choose “Wind Cut” on the
“Camera Functions
Setup” menu screen, and
then press the A
button.
2Choose the desired option, and then press the
A button.
3Press the MENU button to
end setting.
Note:
•You can also use the on-screen display to confirm that
Wind Cut has been set.
•The Wind Cut setting will be stored in memory even when
the DVD Video Camera is turned off.
•The Wind Cut function will work only during movie
recording.
•The Wind Cut function works only with the built-in
microphone. It will not function when using an external
microphone (P. 70).
