Note on Recording under Fluorescent Lighting

If the picture on the monitor flickers when recording under fluorescent lighting, you may be able to compensate by changing the shutter speed to 1/100 sec.

Notes:

Using a fast shutter speed under fluorescent lighting will cause flickering in the picture and possibly periodic color shifts.

Recording with a shutter speed higher than 1/60 sec. (standard) tends to darken the picture. Record in bright locations when you use a high shutter speed.

If the Scene Menu is set after setting the shutter speed, the shutter speed will automatically return to “NORMAL” (1/60).
