3-2-2 Shutter Settings

The electronic shutter of this camera can be adjusted, with
settings displayed in shutter angles, as with a film camera,
in addition to exposure time.
Two operation methods are available for the adjustment:
stepwise and continuous.
Step mode
Your frequently used shutter values (8 values at maximum)
can be registered, enabling stepwise selection of the
shutter values.
At shipment, the following values are registered:
STEP No. Shutter angle
1 216.0º
2 180.0º
3 172.8º
4 150.0º
5 144.0º
6 90.0º
7 45.0º
8 22.5º
The corresponding shutter speeds vary according to the
frame frequency and frame rate of the selected video
format. The step shutter values can be changed and re-
registered on the <SHUTTER ASSIGN> page of the
USER (OPERATION) menu or the <SHUTTER/FPS>
page of the USER (PAINT) menu.
Continuous mode (ECS)
The shutter values can be continuously changed in a range
from 360.0 to 4.3 degrees.
To obtain your desired shutter value quickly, assign a value
nearest your desired one in Step mode, switch to
Continuous mode, then adjust the shutter value.
Note
In a case where a remote control unit connected to the
REMOTE connector of the camera is used, adjustment in
Step mode is enabled with SHUTTER and adjustment in
Continuous mode is enabled with ECS (there is no need to
set to ECS ON). However, to display the shutter values on
the remote control unit correctly, upgrading of the version
is required.
For details, consult your local Sony representative.
