Set the aperture value to a higher number when you want a sharp focus background. Set the

When you want to take a sharp picture of a fast moving subject, set with a faster shutter 
speed. When you want to create a trail effect, set to a slower shutter speed.

Manually setting a higher shutter speed may increase the noise on-screen due to the higher 
sensitivity.

When subjects are recorded in an extremely bright place or under fluorescent/LED lighting, 
the color tone or brightness of the image may change, or horizontal stripes may appear on 
the screen. In that case, change the Recording Mode or manually adjust the shutter speed to 
1/60 or 1/100.

The shutter speed varies depending on [Frame Rate].

You can change the settings during the motion picture recording. In that case, operating sound 
may be recorded. Use of the [Silent Operation] is recommended.
