Notes
■
If you want to use the selected shutter speed and exposure value, you should begin the recording with
the shutter speed and the exposure adjustment screens displayed on the LCD.
■
If you manually change the shutter speed and the exposure value when Auto-exposure option is selected,
manual changes are applied first.
■
The image may not seem as smooth when a high shutter speed is set.
■
The camcorder returns to the auto shutter setting and auto exposure setting when you set the NIGHT CAPTURE to ON, or
change to the EASY, SLOW SHUTTER modes.
■
When recording with a SHUTTER SPEED of 1/1000 or higher, make sure the sun is not shining into the lens.
