Using Looks
The camcorder can shoot using looks—settings that affect the image-related characteristics of the picture.
The camcorder has several pre-installed looks available and you can even create your own user-defined look
based on one of the pre-installed looks. This function is available when the shooting mode is set to n, “, ‚,
or ’.
