Manually adjusting the shutter
speed
The shutter speed can be set using two methods. One is
a method that specifies the time (where a time such as
1/250 sec. is designated), and the other is a method that
specifies the frequency (where synchro scan, 60.24 Hz*, etc.
is designated).
When shooting a TV screen or PC monitor screen, the
horizontal noise generated when the screen is shot can
be minimized by adjusting the frequency to the screen
frequency using synchro scan.
*: This describes when 59.94 Hz has been set as the unit’s
frequency.
When performing the operations
using the wireless remote control
Perform the adjustments on the Camera menu.
For further details, refer to the [Shutter Mode] and
[Step/Synchro] items on page 42.
When performing the operations using the controller
These operations can be performed in the same procedures
as “When performing the operations using the wireless
remote control” by following the operation steps in “Basic
operations” (pages 32 to 39).
When the AW‑RP555 is connected:
1
Press the [SHUTTER] button and turn its lamp
on.
The shutter speed set ahead of time is selected.
2
If necessary, press the [SHUTTER] button to
turn its lamp off in order to return the shutter to
the OFF setting.
