CAMERA SETUP
1 Available only when recording still images on the memory card .
A.SL SHUTTER: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter speeds to obtain
brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting.
 The camcorder uses shutter speeds down to 1/30 (1/15 when recording still images).
 When recording still images, set the flash mode to
(flash off).
 If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [OFF].
 If “
” (camcorder shake warning) appears, we recommend stabilizing the camcorder,
for example, by mounting it on a tripod.
D.ZOOM: Determines the operation of the digital zoom.
 When the digital zoom is activated, the camcorder will switch automatically to the
digital zoom when you zoom in beyond the optical zoom range.
 With the digital zoom the image is digitally processed, so image resolution will
deteriorate the more you zoom in.
 The digital zoom indicator will appear in light blue from 10x up to 40x and dark blue
from 40x to 200x.
 The digital zoom cannot be used in the following cases:
- In the Night recording program (SCN)
