Shutter Settings

With the electronic shutter ON, the shutter angle or shutter

frequency (speed) can be selected.

The selected shutter values can be checked with the status

indications displayed on the upper side of the viewfinder

(page 39)

.

When the frequency indication is assigned, the value

converted depending on the selected frame rate (number of

frames per second) will be displayed. The value with the

frequency value as a denominator will be the shutter speed.

Step Shutter mode

The eight most frequently used shutter values can be

registered as step shutters and can be selected by

specifying the number.

At shipment, the following values are registered:

The corresponding shutter frequencies vary according to

the frame frequency and frame rate of the selected video

format. The step shutter values can be changed and re-

registered on the <SHUTTER ASSIGN> page of the

USER (OPERATION) menu.

Variable Shutter mode (ECS)

Shutter values that have not been registered as step shutters

can be used in Variable Shutter mode.

In a case where the remote control unit that is connected to

the REMOTE connector of the camera is used, Variable

Shutter mode is entered with ECS ON, and Step Shutter

mode is entered with SHUTTER ON. However, to display

the shutter frequencies and angles correctly, upgrading of

the version is required.
