Using the Various Recording Programs

E
The camera provides you with a choice of seven recording programs. They use different combinations of
camera settings in order to adjust the exposure and other functions to match the recording situation.
The name of your selected recording program appears constantly on the left of the display, with the
exception of the AUTO Recording program whose n mark is displayed and then disappears after
4 seconds.
Notes:
• Avoid changing programs during recording as the brightness of the image may change suddenly.
• The specialized AE programs are not suitable for all kinds of lighting. The image may flicker, or a
bright line may appear on the screen if you use them in the wrong lighting conditions.
