[Min. Shtr Speed]
Sets the minimum value for the shutter speed. We recommend using slower shutter
speeds to take brighter pictures in dark locations. Also, you can set it faster to reduce the
blur of the subject.
Settings: [AUTO] [1/250] [1/125] [1/60] [1/30] [1/15] [1/8] [1/4] [1/2] [1]
Slower shutter speeds allow for brighter pictures but increase risk of jitter, so we
recommend using a tripod and the self-timer.
As still pictures may become dark when using faster values, we recommend that still
pictures are taken in bright locations ([ ] flashes red when shutter button is pressed
halfway if still picture will be dark).
