Light Exposure Menu

The Light Exposure setting helps you control the amount of light that enters your camcorder's lens.

This setting should be adjusted when the environment is lighter or darker than normal.

When the environment has more light than is needed, reduce the exposure setting (by using the

negative - count) to reduce the amount of light allowed into the lens by your camcorder.

If the environment has less light (darker) than is needed, increase the exposure setting (by using the

positive + count) to increase the amount of light allowed into the lens by your camcorder.

1) Press the OK button to open the menus for the current mode.

2) Press the LEFT or RIGHT button to scroll and select the 'Light Exposure' menu.

3) Press the UP or DOWN button to highlight the desired menu selection.

4) Press the OK button to confirm and select the highlighted menu option.

5) A

selected option icon will appear on the selected item.

6) Press the LEFT or RIGHT button to select the next menu item.

7) Press the DC button to exit the menu and return to your previous mode.

8) An icon reflecting your selection will display on the LCD screen.

9) Remember that this setting will be remembered by your camcorder until you manually change the

setting or restore the camcorder's default factory settings.

ISO Menu

The ISO menu allows you to set the level of sensitivity that your camcorder has to light in the

surrounding environment. When the ISO level is increased, the image sensor in your camcorder will be

more sensitive to light and allow you to capture images in lower-light situations. The higher sensitivity

to light however, may reduce the quality of the images that are taken.

When the ISO is reduced, the image sensor in your camcorder will be less sensitive to light and will

optimize the image quality in environments with bright lighting.
