Advanced Recording Operations Using the PROGRAM AE function Notes •In sports lesson mode, you cannot take close-ups. This is because your camcorder is set to focus only on subjects in the middle to far distance. •In sunset & moon mode, your camcorder is set to focus only on distant subjects. •The old movie mode and the shutter speed adjustment do not work in PROGRAM AE mode. •The following functions do not work in low lux mode: - Digital effect - Overlap - Wipe - Dot - Spot light mode •While shooting in memory mode, the low lux and sports lesson modes do not work. (The indicator flashes.) If you are recording under a discharge tube such as a fluorescent lamp, sodium lamp or mercury lamp Flickering or changes in color may occur in sports lesson mode. If this happens, turn the PROGRAM AE function off. Even if the PROGRAM AE function is selected You can adjust the exposure. When you focus in telephoto You cannot choose F1.6 and F2.0. About the depth of field The depth of field is the in-focus range, measured from the distance behind a subject to the distance in front. The depth of field can vary with the iris (F value) and the focal length. Lowering the F value (large iris) reduces the depth of field. Raising the F value (small iris) provides a larger depth of field. Zooming in telephoto position offers a smaller depth of field while the depth of field in the wide-angle position is greater. The depth of field Shallow Iris Near open (Low F value) Zoom Telephoto (T) Deep Near close (High F value) Wide (W) 57

About the depth of field
The depth of field is the in-focus range, measured from the distance behind a subject to
the distance in front. The depth of field can vary with the iris (F value) and the focal
length. Lowering the F value (large iris) reduces the depth of field. Raising the F value
(small iris) provides a larger depth of field. Zooming in telephoto position offers a
smaller depth of field while the depth of field in the wide-angle position is greater.
