sufficient light, "LOW LIGHT" appears in the view-
finder to warn you.
o When a tape that was recorded using the high speed
shutter feature is played back, scenes changes will
not be seen as a smooth motion.
• When the camera is pointed at an object that is mov-
ing rapidly, it may not be focused in the auto focus
mode.
In this case, focus manually.
o When you are recording with the 1/500 seconds
shutter speed or play back the tape on which record-
ing was made with this shutter speed, the top and
bottom of the picture may be lost on some TVs con-
nected to the camera/recorder,
but this does not
indicate a fault,
AUTO IRiS
This Camera/Recorder
is provided
with an auto iris mechanism
which
automatically
adjusts the lens aperture
in ac-
cordance
with the incident
light.
When the object is dark, the iris opens automatically,
and it closes when the object
is bright.
When
the power is switched
off, the iris is automatically
set to the fully closed
position.
