you to change the shutter speed (the accumulation
time per recording frame).
The electronic shutter can be adjusted
automatically or manually as required.
Fixed Shutter (manual adjustment)
modes
Recording is made with a specified shutter speed
(accumulation time).
Standard modes (Speed mode/Angle mode)

you wish to record a quick-moving subject with
little blurring.
You can select Speed mode or Angle mode. In
Angle mode, you can specify the shutter speed by
setting the shutter angle.
ECS (Extended Clear Scan) mode
Specify the shutter speed by frequency. This
mode may be used to shoot the monitor screen
eliminating horizontal bands.
SLS (Slow Shutter) mode
For shooting a subject in low-level lighting
conditions. Specify the shutter speed in the
number of accumulated frames.
EX Slow Shutter mode
This is an advanced mode of SLS mode. The
shutter speed is specified in the number of
accumulated frames. Up to 64 frames can be
accumulated in this mode, permitting you to
obtain low-noise clear pictures in low light levels
or a surreal pictures with afterimages.
Auto Shutter mode
The shutter speed is automatically adjusted
according to the picture brightness.
When you set the SHUTTER switch to ON, the
fixed shutter is turned on in the mode and with the
shutter speed you specified with “Shutter” of the
CAMERA SET menu.
Note
When Auto Shutter mode is ON, the fixed shutter
cannot be selected.
