After you have pressed the SHUTTER
button, press SPEED SEL buttons to
select the shutter speed.
The shutter speed changes as follows each
time you press SPEED SEL + button (The
order is reversed for the SPEED SEL −
button.)
Remember that the faster the shutter speed,
the lower the sensitivity.
The current shutter speed appears on the
viewfinder and LCD monitor when you have
selected ON in OTHER DISPLAY in the
DISPLAY SETUP screen of the setup menus.
It is not displayed if you have set the shutter
speed to normal (OFF).
With artificial lighting and especially fluorescent
lights and mercury-vapor lamps, the luminance
changes in synchronization with the power
line frequency. When this frequency is 50 Hz,
mutual interference will occur between the
camera-recorder’s vertical sync frequency
(approx. 60 Hz) and the lighting frequency (50
Hz). This means that the white balance may
change periodically.
Before shooting in areas with artificial lighting
or adjusting the white balance, set the shutter
speed as follows.
