PROGRAM AE
OFF
: Disables the function. (Factory-preset)
SPORTS
(Variable Shutter Speed: 1/250 – 1/4000):
This setting allows fast-moving images to be
captured one frame at a time, for vivid, stable
slow-motion playback. The faster the shutter
speed, the darker the picture becomes. Use the
shutter function under good lighting conditions.
SNOW
: Compensates for subjects that may
otherwise appear too dark when shooting in
extremely bright surroundings such as in the
snow.
SPOTLIGHT
: Compensates for subjects
that may otherwise appear too bright when
shooting under extremely strong direct lighting
such as spotlights.
TWILIGHT
: Makes evening scenes look
more natural. White Balance (
墌
pg. 40) is
automatically set to “AUTO”. When Twilight is
chosen, the camcorder automatically adjusts the
focus from approx. 10 m 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 is not
grainy, it may look as if it is strobing due to the
slow shutter speed.
During Night-Scope, it may be difficult to bring
the camcorder into focus. To prevent this, use of
a tripod is recommended.
EFFECT
OFF
: Disables the function. (Factory-preset)
SEPIA
: Recorded scenes have a brownish
tint like old photos.
MONOTONE
: Like classic black and white
films, your footage is shot in B/W.
CLASSIC

effect.

series of consecutive snapshots.

OFF
: Disables the function. (Factory-preset)
