Special
Conditions
Recording in a very bright ski resort or
capturing the full colors
of
a sunset or a
fireworks display becomes as easy as
selecting a Special Scene recording
program.
When the mode switch is set to
0>,
the
joystick guide will not appear.
Do not change the position
of
the mode
switch while recording, as the brightness
of
the
image may change abruptly.
When setting a numeric value (aperture or
shutter speed), the number display will flash if
the aperture
or
shutter speed is not appropriate
for the recording conditions.
In
such case,
select a different value.
[1l!1 SHUTTER-PRIO.AE]
- If you use a slow shutter speed in dark places,
you can obtain a brighter image, but the image
quality may be lower, and the autofocus may
not work well.
- The image may flicker when recording with
high shutter speeds.
-
Recording
movies
under fluorescent lights:
If
the
screen starts to flicker, select
[Il!1SHUTTER-
PRIO.AE] and set the shutter speed to 1/100.
[B!J APERTURE-PRIO.AE]
- The actual range
of
values available for
selection will vary depending on the initial zoom
position.
