Lighting Techniques

When you use your camcorder, there are normaly only two main recording environments.
- You will be shooting outdoors (Normal recording or through an ND(Neutral Density) filter).
- You will be shooting indoors (Video light recommended or required).
The single greatest influence on picture quality is the level of brightness, measured in lux.
The following table lists a few common situations, the corresponding level of brightness and
any associated recommendations.
Situations

Sandy beach on a hot summer's day.
On a sunny day in the middle of the afternoon.
