The higher shutter speeds are recom-
mended when you are taping fast-moving
action outdoors that you plan to view
using “stop-action pause” or slow-motion
on a VCR. The higher shutter speeds
produce better special effects
performance.
Because your camcorder has a variable
shutter, you can choose a shutter speed of
l/60, l/100, l/250, l/500, l/1000,
l/2000, l/4000, or l/8000 second.
Notes: A tape recorded at the higher shutter
speed may not show movement and change of
scene as smoothly as recordings at the normal
l/60
second speed.
For indoor high-speed shutter recording, you
may find that additional halogen or tungsten
lighting is required. Use of fluorescent,
mercury vapor, or sodium lighting may cause
a “flickering” effect.
