Canon 814XL-S - Manual (Page 86)

With the filming mode dial set at S, you can per­
form fades with the sound alone. The visual
image is maintained as it was during the shoot­
ing, and the sound fades in or out with the same
operations as described with the P.S. setting.
At
the S setting, the camera will not shut itself
off automatically at the end of the fade-out.
Monitoring during fading of sound at the P.S
or S settings is, of course, possible with an
earphone.
For fade-in of sound when the filming mode
dial is set at the S position, press the shutter
release lever half-way first. In that position,
monitor with an earphone to check that the
sound is not being picked up. Then press the
lever fully to start filming.
LAP DISSOLVES WITH PICTURE AND SOUND
(1014XL-S ONLY)
Lap dissolving is a filming technique that merges
and overlaps the end of one scene with the
beginning of the next. For a few seconds, the
film footage is shared by the visual images and
sounds of both scenes, and these lap dissolves
are especially useful when changing from one
primary theme to another.
