When you select a faster shutter speed, movement appears clearer with less shaking when the tape is played back in still or slow mode. The aperture value is automatically adjusted according to the selected shutter speed to maintain appropriate exposure (between F1.6 and Fl 1). This mode is most effective in the following cases: • A golf swing or a tennis match in fine weather with the ball movement captured clearly. • Playing back certain scenes with high-speed movements in clear, sharp pictures.
