Field/Frame [field/frame]
Selects frame accumulation or field accumulation.
field Eliminates blur when shooting fast-moving subjects. The
CCD accumulates charges by field units to make images
show a minimum of blur even when the subject is moving
fast.
frame Produces images with the highest possible vertical
resolution. In this mode, the CCD changes the line that
reads the signal for each field and accumulates charges
in frame units. Select this setting when using the camera
together with measuring instruments that feature memory
functions, systems with image-processing or analysis
functions or a still-image processing system.
Note
If you are using a booster, the "field/frame" item remains fixed
on "frame."
