NOTES
• [‚ Shutter-Pri. AE]:
- On screen only the denominator is displayed – [‚ 250] indicates a shutter speed of 1/250 second,
etc.
- When recording in dark surroundings, you can obtain a brighter picture by using slow shutter
speeds; however, image quality may not be as good and autofocus may not work well.
- The image may flicker when recording with fast shutter speeds.
- Recording movies under fluorescent lights: If the screen starts to flicker, select [‚ Shutter-Pri.
AE] and set the shutter speed to 1/100.
• [" Aperture-Pri. AE]: The actual range of values available for selection will vary depending on the
initial zoom position.
• When setting a numeric value (aperture or shutter speed), the number displayed will flash if the
aperture value or shutter speed is not appropriate for the recording conditions. In such case, select
a different value.
• During exposure lock, the aperture value/shutter speed cannot be changed. Set the aperture value
or shutter speed before manually adjusting the exposure.
• If you set q >
[CUSTOM Dial & Button] to [" Tv / Av] (A 96), you can adjust the shutter
speed or aperture value with the CUSTOM dial and button.
