Flash band compensation (FBC) function

The camera is equipped with a function for compensating and reducing band-like interference (called "flash band") that occurs due to the MOS pickup
device when shooting in environments where flash strobe light such as a still camera is present.
The flash band compensation function is enabled when set to [MAIN MENU] → [SWITCH MODE] → [FBC SETTING] → [FBC] → [ON]. The flash strobe
light such as a still camera is detected and can be compensated.
When the flash band compensation function is enabled, [FBC] is displayed on the status screen.
Not displayed when set to [OFF].
NOTE
@
t When the flash strobe lights, the following phenomena may occur. These are due to the flash band compensation function and are not malfunctions.
- Moving subjects look as if they have been stopped for a moment.
- The resolution drops when the flash strobe lights.
- Horizontal lines appear in the video when the flash strobe lights.
- Flash bands appear only in images shot at the time the flash strobe lights.
