Manual settings will be retained even if you

change the assigned item of the MANUAL dial.
However, if you set [Exposure] after setting
[AE Shift] manually, [Exposure] will override
[AE Shift].
If you set either one of [Exposure], [IRIS], or

[Shutter Speed], the settings of other 2 items
are canceled.
If you select [RESET] in step , all the items

adjusted manually are reset to the default
settings.

Even if you open the IRIS wider (a smaller

F-stop) than F3.4 when you set the zoom lever
to the W (Wide angle) side, the IRIS is reset
to F3.4 as you move the zoom lever to the T
(Telephoto) side.
If you adjust the IRIS, the in-focus range in

front of and behind the focused subject is
changed. When you open the IRIS wider (a
smaller F-stop), the in-focus range becomes
narrower, and when you close the IRIS
narrower (a larger F-stop), the in-focus range
becomes wider. You can set the IRIS to a
preferred value depending on the shooting
scenes.
When you record images under a fluorescent

lamp, sodium lamp, or mercury lamp,
horizontal stripes may appear, flicker may
occur, or color may change. In this case, change
the shutter speed according to the power supply
frequency in your region.
The camera data (p. 91) that appears on the

LCD screen will differ, depending on the
recording settings of the camcorder. The
settings will be displayed with the following
icons.

Enjoying a digest of
your movies (Highlight
Playback)
Your camcorder selects Highlight Playback
scenes at random, puts them together, and
plays them back as a digest of your high
definition image quality (HD) movies and
photos with music and visual effects.
If you like the Highlight Playback you have
just seen, you can save it as a "scenario" and
play it back repeatedly. Furthermore, you
can share the Highlight Playback scenes
or scenarios easily using other media by
converting the data format of the Highlight
Playback scenes or scenarios, which allows
you to upload the data to the Web or create
DVDs.
