• The Color Slow Shutter function may not operate

or Super NightShot plus functions.

Slow Shutter function together with:

• When using the Super NightShot plus or Color Slow

camcorder changes depending on the brightness.
The motion of the picture may slow down at this
time.
• Adjust the focus manually when it is hard to focus
automatically.
• Do not cover the infrared port with your fingers or
other objects. Remove the conversion lens (optional)
if it is attached.
• Depending on the shooting conditions or
circumstances, colors may not be reproduced
properly.
z Tip
• If you record subjects in complete darkness, setting
[NS LIGHT] to [ON] on the menu is recommended.
The maximum shooting distance using the
NightShot Light is about 3 m (10 feet).
(The default setting is [ON].)
If you record subjects in dark places (such as night
scene or in moonlight), set [NS LIGHT] to [OFF] on
the menu. You can make image color deeper (p. 65).
