Setting The Shutter Mode And Speed - Panasonic AG-HPX300 Operating Instructions Manual

Setting the Shutter Mode and Speed

The shutter speed in any shutter mode is set using the
SHUTTER switch.
In SYNCHRO SCAN mode, shutter speed can be switched
easily, using the synchro-scan adjustment switches (+/–)
on the side panel.
Note that the range of selectable shutter speeds may be
pre-defined; whether or not to use the SYNCHRO SCAN
mode may be determined through the <SHUTTER
SPEED> and <SHUTTER SELECT> screens. These
screens are accessible through the menu on the CAM
OPERATION page.
The selected shutter speed is retained even if the unit is
turned off.
