distorted.

Tips
• While recording a bright subject, diffraction
may occur if you close the aperture further
down, resulting in a fuzzy focus (this is a
common phenomenon with video cameras). The
ND filter
D
suppresses this phenomenon and
gives better recording results.
You can adjust the gain manually when you
do not want to use the AGC (automatic gain
control).

Notes
• When you set CAMERA MODE switch

moving subject by adjusting the shutter
speed.
