In shuttle mode, the playback speed varies in the range ±35 times normal speed (using MPEG IMX/DVCAM), according to the angular position of the shuttle dial.

In variable speed mode, you can finely adjust the playback speed from –2 to +2 times normal speed, according to the angular position of the shuttle dial. You can vary this playback speed range in extended menu

item 301 “VAR SPEED RANGE FOR SYNCHRONIZATION.”

The shuttle dial has a detent at the center position, for still image playback.

Normally, you press the SHUTTLE button before turning the shuttle dial, but it is also possible to make a setting to enable shuttle mode directly by turning the dial (set extended menu item 101 “SELECTION FOR SEARCH DIAL ENABLE” to “dial”).

When extended menu item 101 “SELECTION FOR SEARCH DIAL ENABLE” is set to “dial,” after using the shuttle dial, return it to the center position. If the shuttle dial is not in the center position, it is possible occasionally for vibration from other operations to activate the dial, and start playback in shuttle mode.
