MEMO
• When the shutter speed is slower than 1/4 s (1/15 s in the
VGA DRAFT mode), the screen update rate becomes
longer in correspondence with the shutter speed, and time
will be required for the following operations.
Auto white, auto iris, ALC
If the shutter speed is set at 1.4 s or slower, these opera-
tions behave as follows.
Auto white
: Auto white balance function cannot be started.
(
page 30 White balance adjustment)
Auto iris
: Stops at the iris value at that time.
ALC
: Stops at the sensitivity at that time.
To use a shutter speed of 1.4 s or slower, use with the
following settings selected:
IRIS MODE
:
MANUAL
SENSITIVITY
:
STEP or V.SENS
• There may be shortage of light when increasing the shut-
ter speed. In this case, adjust the iris or sensitivity. Spe-
cial attention is required for the picture quality when rais-
ing the sensitivity since images may show artefacts.
