When a bright object is shot in EVS mode or ECS mode (DVW- 790WS/790WSP only) in such a manner that it fills the screen, the upper edge of the picture may have poor quality because of an inherent characteristic of CCD. Before using EVS mode, check the shooting conditions.

When using the electronic shutter, set FIELD/FRAME to FLD (field accumulation mode) on the FUNCTION 2/2 page of the setup menu.
