SPOTLIGHT*

This effect prevents people’s faces, for example, from appearing excessively white when shooting subjects lit by strong light.

PORTRAIT (soft portrait)

This effect brings out the subject while creating a soft background for subjects such as people or flowers.

SPORTS (sports lesson)*

This effect minimises camera-shake on fast- moving subjects such as in tennis or golf.

BEACH&SKI*

This effect prevents people’s faces from appearing dark in strong light or reflected light, such as at a beach in midsummer or on a ski slope.

SUNSETMOON (sunset & moon)**

This effect allows you to maintain atmosphere when you are recording sunsets, general night views, fireworks displays and neon signs.

LANDSCAPE**

This effect is for when you are recording distant subjects such as mountains, and prevents your camcorder from focusing on glass or metal mesh in windows when you are recording a subject behind glass or a screen.
