Camera Setup (Digital Zoom, Image Stabilizer, etc.)

Available only when recording still images on the memory card 

.

A.SL SHUTTER: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter speeds to obtain 
brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting. 

 The camcorder uses shutter speeds down to 1/30 (1/15 when recording still images).
 When recording still images, set the flash mode to 

 (flash off). 

 If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [OFF].
 If “

” (camcorder shake warning) appears, we recommend stabilizing the camcorder, 

for example, by mounting it on a tripod.

D.ZOOM: Determines the operation of the digital zoom.

 When the digital zoom is activated, the camcorder will switch automatically to the 

digital zoom when you zoom in beyond the optical zoom range.

 With the digital zoom the image is digitally processed, so image resolution will 

deteriorate the more you zoom in.

 The digital zoom indicator will appear in light blue from 10x up to 40x and dark blue 

from 40x to 200x.

 The digital zoom cannot be used in the following cases:

- In the Night recording program (SCN)
- With the Multi-Images Screen
