Reducing Flickers

Recording
The emphasis level and color of the contours can
be set with “Peaking” (page 117) of the LCD/VF
SET menu.
To reduce flickers, try either of the following two
methods:
Setting the shutter speed according to
the power-supply frequency
Activate the electronic shutter (page 48) and set
the shutter speed according to the power supply
frequency.
When the frequency is 50 Hz
Set the shutter speed to
1
/
50
or
1
/
100
seconds.
When the frequency is 60 Hz
Set the shutter speed to
1
/
60
or
1
/
120
seconds.
Using the Flicker-Reduction function
Set “Mode” of “Flicker Reduce” (page 111) of
the CAMERA SET menu to “Auto” or “On” and
set “Frequency” to the power-supply frequency
(50 Hz or 60 Hz).
Note
If the frame rate selected for recording is close to
the power-supply frequency, flicker may not be
reduced sufficiently even if you activate the
Flicker-Reduction function. In such cases, use the
electronic shutter.
Recommended settings for flicker reduction
Frequency
Always set “Frequency” to the power-supply
frequency value appropriate for the shooting area.
Mode
• It is recommended to set “Mode” to “Off” when
shooting outdoors or under lighting that does
not cause flicker. (It can be also “Auto,” but the
compensation may not be done properly.)
• It is recommended to set “Mode” to “Auto”
when shooting indoors or under various lighting
that may cause flicker, such as fluorescent,
sodium, or mercury-vapor lamps. (If
continuously shooting under lighting that may
cause flicker, “Mode” should be set to “On.”)
