Shutter Speed
Shutter Speed
Set the shutter speed based on the recording conditions. For example, you may want to set slower shutter
speeds in darker environments. The camcorder offers the following modes.
OFF: The camcorder uses a standard shutter speed based on
the frame rate. To turn off the shutter adjustment and use the
standard shutter speed, set the SHUTTER switch to OFF.
Automatic: The camcorder automatically adjusts the shutter
speed based on the picture’s brightness.
Speed: Allows you to set the shutter speed (in fractions of a
second). You can select the increment to use when adjusting
the shutter speed between 1/3-stop and 1/4-stop increments.
Angle: You can set the shutter angle to determine the shutter
speed.
Clear Scan: Set the frequency in order to record CRT computer
monitors without displaying black bands or flicker on the
screen.
Slow: You can set slower shutter speeds to obtain brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting. This
mode is not available when slow motion recording is activated.
