horizontal bands of noise.
You may be able to improve the situation by
adjusting the shutter speed to 1/50 if the power
frequency of your area is 50 Hz, or 1/60 in a 60
Hz area.
• You can switch the shutter speed display
between seconds and degrees ([SHUTTER
DISPLAY], p. 101).
To adjust automatically
Press the SHUTTER button G once. The
shutter speed value disappears, or
appears next to the shutter speed value.
You can set an appropriate brightness level
using the ND filter switch B when the
recording environment is too bright.
The ND filters 1, 2 and 3 reduce the volume
of light to about 1/4, 1/16 and 1/64,
respectively.
If flashes during the iris automatic
adjustment, set the ND filter to 1. If
flashes during the iris automatic
adjustment, set the ND filter to 2. If
flashes during the iris automatic
adjustment, set the ND filter to 3.
The ND filter indicator will stop flashing
and remain on the screen.
If flashes, set the ND filter switch
B to OFF. The ND filter icon will
disappear from the screen.
b Notes
• If you change the ND filter switch B during
recording, the movie and sound may become
distorted.
• When adjusting the iris manually, the ND filter
icon does not flash even if the light volume
should be adjusted with the ND filter.
• If the camcorder cannot detect the ND filter
position (OFF/1/2/3), flashes on the screen.
Make sure that the ND filter is set correctly.
z Tip
• While recording a bright subject, diffraction
may occur if you close the aperture further
down, resulting in a fuzzy focus (this is a
common phenomenon with video cameras). The
ND filter switch B suppresses this
phenomenon and gives better recording results.
