Developing scenes smoothly
– Shot transition
You can register the settings of focus, zoom,
iris, gain, shutter speed, and white balance,
and then change the recording setting from
the current one to the registered one, resulting
in a smooth transition of scenes (Shot
transition).
For example, you can shift the focus from
closer objects to farther objects, or change the
depth of field by adjusting the iris. In
addition, you can develop scenes under
different recording conditions smoothly. If
you register the manual adjustment function
of the white balance, the scenes will develop
smoothly between objects indoor and those
outdoor.
Use a tripod to avoid camera-shake.
Set the transition curve and duration using
[SHOT TRANS] on the
(CAMERA
SET) menu (p. 53).
