Notes:
• Recording with a shutter speed faster than 1/50
sec. tends to darken the picture. It is best to
record in a brightly-lit location in sunlight or with
video lights or other auxiliary illumination.
• Using a fast shutter speed under fluorescent
lighting will cause flickering in the picture and
possibly periodic colour shifts.
• In order to check the manual setting state after
performing step 6, reset the Manual Selection
switch to MANUAL.
• The camcorder will return to Auto Shutter
Speed mode if a scene setting is selected and
then cancelled afterward.
• The manual shutter speed setting cannot be
used with Night Recording.
• See page 68 to cancel all the manual settings
selected on the MANUAL screen.
