This section provides a description of the electronic shutter, together with setting and handling directions.
Shutter Modes
The table below lists the shutter modes in which the unit's electronic shutter can be used as well as the shutter speeds which
can be selected.
To use the fixed shutter speed
" For eliminating flicker due to lighting
" For shooting fast moving subjects clearly
To use the shutter speed of SYNCHRO SCAN
" For shooting monitor screens in a way that minimizes the
pattern of horizontal lines
" For shooting images when adding effects to the subjects'
movement
SYNCHRO SCAN:
Shutter is set using angle (deg) irrespective of
frame rate.
SYNCHRO SCAN2:
Shutter is set using time (sec) irrespective of
frame rate.

* F displays the frame rate frequency for VFR. For example, if the VFR recording was done with a frame rate frequency of 15, the range of
the SYNCHRO SCAN will be from 1/15.

#Notes
" No matter in which mode the electronic shutter is used,
the higher the shutter speed, the lower the camera's
sensitivity.
" When the aperture is in the automatic mode, it will
increasingly open and the depth of focus will become
shallower as the shutter speed is increased.
" By setting the shutter speed on the time axis (1/60, 1/100,
1/120, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, 1/2000), the frame rate can
be varied while keeping the exposure constant.
This is equivalent to Ramping (compensating for changes
in the frame rate using shutter angle) in a conventional film
camera.
