During the auto-white measurement process iris is set to Auto and 90% and the knee
is turned off.
Black balance is not necessary with this camera because of the continuous automatic
black control circuits.
4.8.7 Exposure time
The exposure time values of 1/200, 1/500 and 1/1000 of a second are used to capture
fast moving objects so that these can be played back sharply in slow motion. The value
selected depends on the speed of the moving object.
☞
Note
Increasing the exposure speed lowers the camera sensitivity proportionally.
Selecting the exposure time
The momentary up/down
Exposure time switch
(16) gives a choice of exposure time
settings.
