SPORTS
High shutter speed clearly captures fast-moving action.
ND : ND EFFECT
A black mist darkens the picture, as when an ND filter is
used. Helps to counter the effects of glare on the subject.
FG : FOG
Makes the picture look misty white, as when an external
fog filter is attached to the lens. Softens the image and
gives it a “fantasy” look.
TWILIGHT
Dusk, twilight scenery, fireworks, etc., look more natural
and dramatic. The following happens when Twilight
mode is selected:
•Auto gain control is turned off.
•White Balance is set to “
:FINE” (day mode), but can
also be manually changed to another mode (
pg. 29).
•Auto Focus becomes available only in the range of
10 m to infinity. To focus when the subject-to-camera
distance is less than 10 m, use manual focusing
(
pg. 28).
S1/2000
(1/2000 sec. High Speed Shutter)
Captures faster action than Sports mode.
NOTES:
●
Only one mode can be engaged at a time.
●
The screen becomes slightly dark in the High
Speed Shutter mode. Use in well-lit situa-
tions.
●
In the “High Speed Shutter” or “Sports”
modes, picture colour may be adversely
affected if the subject is lit by alternating
discharge-type light sources such as
flourescent or mercury-vapour lights.
●
This function cannot be activated during
Night-Scope (
pg. 18) (GR-SXM470A/
FXM270A/FX220A/SXM27EA/SX22EA only).

“VIDEO ECHO” mode (
pg. 21) is
activated (GR-SXM470A/FXM270A/FX220A/
