Shutter Speed
Shutter Speed
You can set the shutter speed according to the shooting conditions. For example, you may want to set slower
shutter speeds in darker environments. The camera offers the following modes.
You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 181).
[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 & fast motion recording is activated.
[Auto]: The camera automatically adjusts the shutter speed based on the picture’s brightness.
[Off]: The camera uses a standard shutter speed based on the frame rate.
Changing the Shutter Speed Mode
Set the SHUTTER switch to ON and then slide the
switch toward SEL to change the shutter speed mode.
• Repeatedly pushing the switch toward SEL will change the
shutter speed mode in the following order: Speed 
Angle  Clear scan  Slow  Automatic.
• When set to Automatic,
E will appear to the left of the
shutter speed value on the screen. The displayed shutter
speed value will change according to the automatic
adjustment.
Available shutter speeds
The individual setting options that can be selected will change depending on the frame rate used.
1
59.94i and 50.00i are available only for XF-AVC (YCC422 10 bit) primary clips when the main resolution/bit rate is 1920x1080
Intra-frame or 1920x1080 Long GOP.
2
Available values depend on the recording frame rate or the slow & fast motion recording frame rate.
3
Not available when slow & fast motion recording is activated.
