Setting Up Camera Functions
SELECTING SHOOTING MODE TO MATCH THE SUBJECT 
(SWITCHING PROGRAM AE MODE)
This DVD video camera/recorder automatically detects the status of subject and surrounding 
situation and records the optimum image: If you choose the shooting mode to match the recording 
conditions, clearer images will be recorded.

Press the MENU button, use the f/e/
d/c buttons to choose “Program AE” on 
the “Camera Functions Setup” screen, and 
then press the A button.
The options will appear on the right of 
“Program AE”.

Use the f/e/d/c buttons to choose 
the desired option, and then press the A 
button: The selected option will be set.

Press the MENU button to end the setting.
The menu screen will disappear.
Note
:
• You can check the selected AE mode by the on-
screen information display. However, nothing will 
appear in the Auto mode.
• The shooting mode set as above will be stored in 
memory even if the DVD video camera/recorder is 
turned off.
• When recording in a dark area, an after-image will 
appear when filming a moving subject or if camera 
shake occurs (it is therefore recommended that you 
use a tripod in such cases).
• If the Sports mode is used under a fluorescent light, 
the image may flicker: In this case, use the Auto mode 
for recording.
 Auto : The camera/recorder automatically 
judges the subject and surrounding environment 
for optimum recording.
 Sports : Reduces blurring when recording 
rapidly moving subjects such as in golf or tennis.
 Portrait : Makes a subject, such as a person 
or a creature, stand out from a blurred 
background.
 Spotlight : Prevents overexposure of subject 
portrait face, etc. when strong light strikes the 
subject, as in a wedding or on stage.
 Sand & Snow : Prevents underexposure of 
subject portrait face, etc. in a place where 
reflection of light is intense, such as at the 
seaside in midsummer or on a ski slope.
 Low Light : Allows user to record in a dark 
place even with decreased lighting.
Turn the LCD monitor 180º during recording: 
The LCD monitor light can then be used for 
recording.
