We recommend using a tripod when recording with a slow shutter speed.

If you manually change the shutter speed value when “Scene Mode(AE)” function is selected, manual changes are applied with priority.

The image may not seem smooth when a high speed is set.

This function will be set to “Auto” in the EASY.Q mode.

When recording with a shutter speed of 1/1000 or higher, make sure the sun is not directly shining into the lens.

The shutter speed can be set in the DVD camcorder record mode only.

Fast shutter speed allows a fast-moving subject to be captured one frame at a time vividly.
