ND Filter
Using the ND filter allows you to open up the aperture to obtain a shallower depth of field even when recording in
bright surroundings. You can also use the ND filter to avoid the soft focus caused by diffraction when using small
apertures. You can select one of 3 density levels.
Press the ND FILTER + or – button to select the desired ND filter
setting.
• Repeatedly pressing ND FILTER + button will change the ND filter
setting in the following order: [ND 1/4] [ND 1/16] [ND 1/64]
ND filter off (no onscreen display).
The ND FILTER
– button cycles through the settings in reverse order.
• The selected ND filter setting will appear on the left of the screen.
• About the ND warning:
In the following cases, if the ND filter setting is not appropriate, an ND warning icon will start flashing next to
the ND filter setting*.
- The gain value is too high.
- The aperture is too closed.
Change the ND filter setting so the ND filter display stops flashing to mitigate the effect of such conditions.
* When the optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the camcorder, the RC-V100's ND filter indicator will flash as
well.
• Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. Setting a custom white
balance (A 63) may be effective in such case.
• About changing the ND filter setting using the optional RC-V100 Remote Controller:
- When the remote controller is connected to the camcorder, you can use the remote controller’s ND button in
the same way as the camcorder’s ND FILTER + button.
- ND filter indicators 1 to 3 will illuminate in orange when the ND filter is set to 1/4, 1/16 and 1/64, respectively.
