SPORTS
(Variable Shutter Speed: 1/250 – 1/4000):

shooting under extremely strong direct lighting
such as spotlights.

more natural. White Balance (
automatically set to “AUTO”. When Twilight is

the focus from approx. 10 m (32 ft) to infinity.
From less than 10 m, adjust the focus
manually.
NIGHT
: Makes dark subjects or areas
even brighter than they would be under good
natural lighting. Although the recorded image

to the slow shutter speed.
During Night-Alive, it may be difficult to bring
the camcorder into focus. To prevent this, use
of a tripod is recommended.
