Manual shutter speed adjustment
≥ When the shutter speed is set lower than 1/15 in the Still Picture Recording Mode, using a tripod
is recommended. The shutter speed will be set to 1/30 when the unit is turned on again or when
the Quick Start is performed.
≥ You may see a band of light around an object that is shining very bright, or highly reflective.
≥ During normal playback, image movement may not look smooth.
≥ If you record an extremely bright object or record under indoor lighting, color and screen
brightness may change or a horizontal line may appear on the screen. In this case, record in the
Intelligent Auto Mode or set the shutter speed to 1/60 in areas where the power supply frequency
is 60 Hz, or 1/100 in areas of 50 Hz.
≥ Brightness of the image displayed on the LCD monitor may be different from brightness of the
image actually recorded during the Still Picture Recording Mode. Confirm the image on the
playback screen after recording.
Manual iris/gain adjustment
≥ If the gain value is increased, the noise on the screen increases.
≥ Depending on the zoom magnification, there are iris values that are not displayed.
