Auto Shutter Speed Control - Sears LXI series 580.55914490 Owner's Manual

AUTO SHUTTER SPEED CONTROL
• ABOUT WHITE BALANCE
Adjustment of white balance is for color
compensation that allows a white subject to be
recorded and reproduced as normal white without
undue effect from the color of surrounding light,
which may be too blue or too red. Your video
camcorder is equipped with a constant automatic
white balance system which will continuously
maintain proper color balance.
When the "WHITE BALANCE" is in auto state, it can
adjust white balance automatically when the color
temperature of light source is in the range of 2800 °
K-6500°K.
• HIGH SPEED SHUTTER
Variable Shutter Speeds
Your new camcorder is equipped with a high speed
shutter for recording fast action shots and for clear,
high-definition stopped and slow motion playback.
Normal shutter speed is "1/60" second, but can be
changed to a faster speed, up to "1/10000" second.
Recommended Shutter Speed
The proper shutter speed should be selected to
provide optimum picture quality. To prevent blurring
when recording fast moving objects, use a fast
shutter speed. Fast shutter speeds also require a
higher light level.
To operate the Shutter Speed selection mode,
use the following steps.
In the RECORD PAUSE mode or RECORD mode:
1. Press the H.S. SHUTTER button repeatedly to
select the desired speed. The selected shutter
speed will appear on the viewfinder screen.
Note: When the shutter speed is 1/60 seconds,
"1/60" will not be displayed in the EVF.
When the high speed shutter is no longer desired:
2. Press the H.S SHUI-FER button repeatedly until
the shutter indication disappears from the EVF
screen.
Note: The high speed shutter will remain on (even
when the power is turned off and then back on within
30 minutes) until the standard shutter speed or Auto
mode is selected
The high speed shutter requires more illumination
than the standard speed shutter. It may be nece-
ssary to switch back to standard speed shutter if
more light is not available.
