every 1/60 of a second. Thus, the actual image displayed in an instant covers only half of the
apparent image area. Displaying the whole image simultaneously on a full screen is called
displaying with all the pixels. In this mode the picture is clearer than one in normal mode,
but moving objects appear jerky since the picture is read/output every about 1/15 second.
The setting at the factory
This camcorder is originally programed to record still/moving pictures on a mini DV tape in
the normal TV format (Interlace format).
When shooting under fluorescent light
When shooting in the progressive mode under fluorescent light or light bulb, a rare
phenomenon may happen in which the screen lights up brightly (Flicker phenomenon). This
is not a malfunction. If you want to stop this phenomenon, set PROG. SCAN to OFF in the
menu system.
