Setting the Electronic Shutter Note When Auto Shutter mode is On, the fixed shutter cannot be selected. Recording The electronic shutter of the camcorder permits you to change the shutter speed (the accumulation time per recording frame). The electronic shutter can be adjusted automatically or manually as required. Auto Shutter mode The shutter speed is automatically adjusted according to the picture brightness. Fixed Shutter (manual adjustment) modes Recording is made with a specified shutter speed (accumulation time). Standard modes (Speed mode/Angle mode) These modes may be especially effective when you wish to record a quick-moving subject with little blurring. You can select Speed mode or Angle mode. In Angle mode, you can specify the shutter speed by setting the shutter angle. ECS (Extended Clear Scan) mode Specify the shutter speed by frequency. This mode may be used to shoot the monitor screen eliminating horizontal bands. Slow Shutter mode The shutter speed is specified in the number of accumulated frames.
