Camera Functions 
Setup
Selecting a Shooting 
Mode to Match the 
Conditions 
(Program AE)
You can also select a shooting 
mode that better suits the situation 
for even clearer images.
Program AE Mode
Auto (No icon appears.)
Automatically adjust the 
exposure.
Caution
A function to reduce flickering 
operates when in Auto mode.
However, this reduction may not 
work, depending on the subject, 
lighting conditions, or the gain 
limit setting.
In such case, setting the shutter 
speed to 1/100 in the Shutter 
mode can reduce the flicker.
 Manual
The settings for sensitivity 
(gain), shutter speed, aperture 
(iris) are adjusted manually.
 Shutter
The shutter speed is adjusted 
manually.
 Iris
The aperture is adjusted 
manually.
  Spotlight
When a strong light is on the 
subject, this prevents the 
person’s face from washing 
out.
  White Board
Provides the ideal exposure 
control for shooting a white 
board.
If you select a Program AE 
mode, new settings that can be 
made in the selected mode are 
displayed, from the following 
settings.
Gain
This sets the sensitivity when 
Manual is selected. Can be set 
in a range from 0 to 30dB (31 
steps).
Shutter Speed
This sets the shutter speed 
when Manual or Shutter are 
selected. You can select from 
the values in the table below.
The values that can be 
selected vary with the image 
output format.
