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 (

28) 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.
