SHUTTER
1/60
–The shutter speed is fixed at 1/60th of a
second. Black bands that usually appear when
shooting a TV screen become narrower.
1/100
–The shutter speed is fixed at 1/100th of a
second. The flickering that occurs when shooting
under a fluorescent light or mercury-vapor lamp is
reduced.
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 (
pg. 39) is initially set to
,
but can be changed to your desired setting. When
Twilight is chosen, the camcorder automatically
adjusts the focus from approx. 10 m (32 ft) to
infinity. From less than 10 m (32 ft), adjust the
focus manually.

photos. Combine this with the 16:9LB mode for a
classic look.

B/W. Used together with the 16:9LB mode, it
enhances the “classic film” effect.

Gives recorded scenes a strobe effect.
STROBE*
2
Your recording looks like a series of consecutive
snapshots.
SLOW (Slow Shutter)*
1
Lights dark subjects or areas even brighter than
they would be under good natural lighting. Use
“SLOW” only in dark areas.
SLOW 1
Slow Shutter raises light sensitivity to allow
shooting in dark environments.
SLOW 2
Slow Shutter raises light sensitivity further to allow
shooting in even darker environments.
NOTES:
●
When using “SLOW”, the image takes on a strobe-
like effect.
●
If the manual focus indicator blinks when “SLOW”
is used, adjust focus manually and use a tripod.
VIDEO ECHO*
