Panasonic AJ-PX5000G - Setting the Synchro Scan Mode

Chapter 4 Adjustments and Settings for Recording — Setting the electronic shutter
@@
NOTE
t Whichever mode the electronic shutter is used in, the higher the shutter speed, the lower the sensitivity of the camera becomes.
t When the aperture is in the automatic mode, it will increasingly open and the depth of focus will become shallower as the shutter speed is increased.
t Under lighting conditions using uorescent lighting or other discharge tube, horizontal stripes might appear on screen. If this happens, this can be
improved by adjusting the shutter speed.
t A subject that quickly crosses the camera may appear distorted when shot. This is due to the method applied for reading the signals from the pickup
device (MOS sensor), and is not a malfunction.
t Shutter mode is off while the digital super gain function is active.
