DIS (Digital Image Stabilizer)
When recording while holding the camcorder in
your hand, or when shooting a subject with little or
no contrast, subtle hand movements will cause
shakiness in the recorded image.
ON–Compensates for relatively small shakes that
occur when shooting close up. “
” appears in the
viewfinder during recording. *This function is
usable when the Select Dial is set to “MANUAL”.
OFF–When shooting with the camcorder in a fixed
position or on a tripod, set the Stabilizer to “OFF”.
If you leave it on and then move or turn the camera
to follow a moving subject, unnecessary
compensation occurs and this can result in an
unnatural recorded image.
NOTES:
● The Stabilizer cannot compensate for drastic hand
movements while shooting.
● The Stabilizer will not work when certain
P.AE/ Effects (Classic Film, Strobe, Slow 1, 2
(
੬
pg. 34) and Fade/Wipe Effects (Picture Wipe/
Dissolve (
੬
pg. 30) are activated.
The “ ” indicator appears blinking in the
viewfinder.
Zoom Magnification
You can select 10x, 20x, or 100x zoom
magnifications.
10x–Optical zoom that does not degrade the quality
of the recording.
20x–Electronic processing (Digital zoom) that lets
you get closer up.
100x–Electronically-processed images at 100-times
magnification.
Gain Up
Bright, natural recordings can be taken even in
areas with low or poor lighting.
A –The shutter speed is automatically adjusted (1/
25 — 1/200 sec.). Shooting a subject in low or poor
lighting at 1/25 sec. shutter speed provides a
brighter image than in the AGC mode, but the
subject’s movements are not smooth or natural.
OFF–Select this setting when lighting is not a
problem.
AGC–This is the factory setting, and is automatically
activated during Auto operation. The overall
appearance is jagged, but the image is bright and
the movements are more natural than in “
A ”
mode.
Wide Mode
This recording mode is compatible with
wide-screen TVs (16:9 aspect ratio). When using
this mode, please refer to your wide-screen TV’s
instruction manual.
SQUEEZE–For playback on TVs with an aspect ratio
of 16:9. Naturally expands the image to fit the
screen without distortion. appears in the
viewfinder.
CINEMA–Inserts black bands at the top and bottom
of the screen. Works with both 4:3 and 16:9 TVs.
Used with the Sepia (
੬
pg. 34) or Monotone
(
੬
pg. 34) modes, it gives the recorded scenes the
look of a classic movie.
OFF–Select “OFF” when you don’t want to use
either of the above modes (first set the Select Dial to
“MANUAL”). *During Full-Auto operation, both
Squeeze and Cinema modes are unusable.
When you watch a “SQUEEZE”- or “CINEMA”-
mode picture on a wide-screen TV, connect an S-
Video cable between connector S1 or S2 on the TV
and the S-Video output connector on the Docking
Station, and adjust the setting at the TV manually to
produce the appropriate 16:9 picture.
During playback, the images is naturally expanded
to fit the wide screen, with no proportional
distortion.
NOTES:
● When recording using the Squeeze, the image in the
viewfinder, as well as on a regular TV (if connected for
playback) will be the standard aspect ratio and the
picture will appear squeezed.
● When playing back a tape recorded in Squeeze and
Cinema, Squeeze cannot be distinguished from Cinema
during fast-forward or rewind.
