Notes
When using a “Memory Stick PRO Duo” made
by Sony Corporation. The recordable time
for movies varies depending on the recording
conditions, [REC MODE], and the type of
“Memory Stick.”
If you record in LP mode, the quality of
scenes may be degraded, or scenes with quick
movements may appear with block noise when
you play back the movie.
NIGHTSHOT LIGHT
When using either the NightShot plus
(p. 28) or [S. NIGHTSHOT PLS] (p. 74)
function to record, you can record clearer
images by setting [NIGHTSHOT LIGHT],
which emits infrared light (invisible), to
[ON] (the default setting).
Notes
Do not cover the infrared port with your fingers
or other objects.
Remove the conversion lens (optional).
The maximum shooting distance using
[NIGHTSHOT LIGHT] is about 3 m (10 feet).
