aperture value to a lower number when you want a soft focus background.

speed. When you want to create a trail effect, set to a slower shutter speed.

Manually setting a higher shutter speed may increase the noise on-screen due to the higher
sensitivity.

When recording under lighting such as fluorescent lighting, mercury lighting and sodium
lighting, the coloring and brightness of the screen may change.
