Using the Shot transition You can register the settings of focus, zoom, iris, gain, shutter speed, and white balance, and then change the recording setting from the current one to the registered one, resulting in a smooth transition of scenes (Shot transition). For example, you can shift the focus from closer objects to farther objects, or change the depth of field by adjusting the iris.
