Shutter Settings

 

This section covers the settings for electronic shutter

 

speed, CLS (clear scan ) and EVS function.

 

The new value for the shutter speed or clear scan

 

frequency and EVS setting remains set until changed,

 

even when the camera is powered off.

 

Shutter speeds

 

There are five shutter speeds, from 1/100 s (DXC-D35/

 

D35WSL) or 1/60 s (DXC-D35P/D35WSPL) to 1/2000 s.

 

Increasing the shutter speed reduces blurring when

 

shooting a fast-moving subject. It is also possible to

 

reduce flicker when shooting under fluorescent

 

lighting by changing the shutter speed.

 

CLS (Clear Scan) function

 

When shooting a computer screen or projected image,

 

horizontal bands may appear in the camera image.

 

This is because the vertical scan frequency of the

 

computer-generated image is different from the

 

vertical scan frequency of the video system. The clear

 

scan function allows you to select a vertical scan

 

frequency to reduce this interference.

 

EVS (Enhanced Vertical Scan)

 

This function enhances the vertical scan resolution

 

from 400 to 450 lines (or 450 to 530 lines) to reduce

 

flicker. However, this increases the aliasing.

The vertical scan frequencies of computer screens

 

vary, and it may not be possible to eliminate the

 

interference patterns entirely. Note also that the

 

vertical scan frequency may change depending on the

1 Set the SHUTTER switch to the ON position.

The SHUTTER indicator in the viewfinder comes on, and it is now possible to change the shutter speed or clear scan frequency setting and to set the EVS function. (If the EVS is already selected, the SHUTTER indicator will not light.)

2 Operate the MENU/STATUS switch to align the cursor with the item “SHUTTER” in basic menu page 1.

3 Press the UP/ON button or DOWN/OFF button to select the required shutter speed, scan frequency or EVS.

Each time you press the UP/ON button or DOWN/ OFF botton, the shutter speed or clear scan frequency setting changes in the following order:

When using the clear scan function

Watching the monitor screen, adjust the frequency to give minimum interference.

If there is a black band in the monitor image, reduce the frequency, and if there is a white band, increase the frequency.

To return from the basic menu to the normal indications

Press the MENU/STATUS switch as many times as necessary until the normal indications appear. The new setting of the shutter speed or clear scan frequency appears in the normal screen display.

When shooting is finished

Set the SHUTTER switch to the OFF position.

The SHUTTER indicator in the viewfinder goes off.
