Recording, Color or brightness

Page 129 highlights

Problem The unit arbitrarily stops recording. Auto focus function does not work. Color balance of images is strange when recording in a place such as a gymnasium. Color or brightness of the image changes, or you may see horizontal bars in the image. The LCD monitor flickers indoors. Object seems to be warped. Recording Check points ≥ Use an SD card that can be used for motion picture recording. (l 24) ≥ The recordable time may have shortened due to the deterioration of the data writing speed or repeated recording and deletion. Using the unit, format the SD card, built-in memory or HDD. (l 46, 47) ≥ If [AGS] is [ON], record in the normal horizontal position or set [AGS] to [OFF]. (l 65) ≥ If the unit is exposed to strong vibrations or shocks while recording on HDD, recording may stop to protect the HDD. If the unit is used in a place with loud sounds, the recording may stop due to sound vibrations. Recording data on an SD card is recommended in these places. ≥ Switch to Intelligent Auto Mode. ≥ If you are trying to record a scene which is hard to bring into focus in Auto Focus Mode, use the Manual Focus Mode to adjust the focus. (l 37, 75) ≥ In a place with multiple light sources, such as a gymnasium or a hall, set the white balance setting to (Indoor mode 2). If you cannot record clearly with the (Indoor mode 2), set it to (Manual adjustment mode). (l 73) ≥ Color or brightness of the image may change, or you may see horizontal bars in the image when the object is recorded under fluorescent light, mercury light or sodium light, etc., but this is not a malfunction. ≥ In Motion Picture Recording Mode, record in Intelligent Auto Mode or set the shutter speed to 1/60 in areas where the power supply frequency is 60 Hz, or 1/100 in areas of 50 Hz. ≥ In Still Picture Recording Mode, this will not affect the recorded image. ≥ Object seems to be warped slightly when the object moves across the image very fast, but this is because the unit is using MOS for the image sensor. This is not a malfunction. 129 VQT3J15

Recording
Problem
Check points
The unit arbitrarily stops
recording.
Use an SD card that can be used for motion picture
recording. (
l
24)
The recordable time may have shortened due to the
deterioration of the data writing speed or repeated
recording and deletion. Using the unit, format the SD
card, built-in memory or HDD. (
l
46, 47)
If [AGS] is [ON], record in the normal horizontal position
or set [AGS] to [OFF]. (
l
65)
If the unit is exposed to strong vibrations or shocks while
recording on HDD, recording may stop to protect the
HDD. If the unit is used in a place with loud sounds, the
recording may stop due to sound vibrations. Recording
data on an SD card is recommended in these places.
Auto focus function
does not work.
Switch to Intelligent Auto Mode.
If you are trying to record a scene which is hard to bring
into focus in Auto Focus Mode, use the Manual Focus
Mode to adjust the focus. (
l
37, 75)
Color balance of images
is strange when
recording in a place
such as a gymnasium.
In a place with multiple light sources, such as a
gymnasium or a hall, set the white balance setting to
(Indoor mode 2). If you cannot record clearly with the
(Indoor mode 2), set it to
(Manual adjustment mode).
(
l
73)
Color or brightness of
the image changes, or
you may see horizontal
bars in the image.
The LCD monitor flickers
indoors.
Color or brightness of the image may change, or you may
see horizontal bars in the image when the object is
recorded under fluorescent light, mercury light or sodium
light, etc., but this is not a malfunction.
In Motion Picture Recording Mode, record in Intelligent
Auto Mode or set the shutter speed to 1/60 in areas
where the power supply frequency is 60 Hz, or 1/100 in
areas of 50 Hz.
In Still Picture Recording Mode, this will not affect the
recorded image.
Object seems to be
warped.
Object seems to be warped slightly when the object
moves across the image very fast, but this is because the
unit is using MOS for the image sensor. This is not a
malfunction.
