Situation
• Recording sports action
in bright daylight.
• Recording in bright day-
light at a ski resort.
• Recording outdoor
sports on a partially
cloudy day.
• Recording an outside
scene through a car win-
dow (when you want to
minimize blur caused by
the camera shaking).
• When you want to
reduce the light by half.
Use as a substitute for
an ND2 filter.
Notes:
• Recording with a shutter speed faster than 1/50
sec. tends to darken the picture. Record in
bright locations when you use a fast shutter
speed.
• Using a fast shutter speed under fluorescent
lighting will cause flickering in the picture and
possibly periodic colour shifts.
• The manual shutter speed setting will be
cancelled if a picture effect is selected
afterward.
• The manual shutter speed setting cannot be
used with Night Recording.
• When you want to cancel all manual settings and
return to Auto mode, press the AUTO ON/OFF
button.
Tips on Using the Manual Shutter
Speed
• Fast shutter speeds can be used with the still
recording function (see page 38) to record
higher quality still images of fast-moving
subjects.
• If the on-screen picture flickers when
recording under fluorescent lighting, you may
be able to compensate by setting the shutter
speed to 1/120 sec.
