7. OTHERS TECHNICAL INFORMATION Normal (Field) Mode During normal recording, the CCD’s storage time is approx. 1/60 sec. [U Ver.] or 1/50 sec. [E Ver.] in the field mode. With the odd number fields, the total electric charge of the odd number lines and even number lines of the CCD are output to the odd number line (reading two lines at a time), with the even number field, they are output to the even number line. - Page 27 TECHNICAL INFORMATION (Cont’d) Operations Principles of the Electronic Shutter (with the 1/500 sec. setting) Electric charge is stored in the CCD image sensing device only for a 1/500 sec. before the signal is read from the CCD image sensing device. At this time the electric charge stored previ- ously is discharged to another electrode.
