Shot Transition 63
Record
ing
The Shot Transition function helps you to easily
obtain complex picture effects by registering
camera settings or conditions as a “shot” to be
reproduced in a recording sequence.
Your settings for focus, zoom, iris, gain, shutter
speed, white balance, color matrix, and detail
level can be registered in combination in one shot,
and you can change the current camera settings to
those of the shot, or the settings reproduced from
one shot to those of another Shot, resulting in a
smooth transition of scenes.
For example, you can shift the focus from a closer
object to a farther object, or change the depth of
field by adjusting the iris. In addition, you can
develop scenes under different recording
conditions smoothly. If you register the manual
adjustment function for white balance, the scenes
will develop smoothly between objects indoors
and those outdoors.
Notes
• Shot transition cannot be activated in
combination with any of the EX Slow Shutter,
Interval Recording, Frame Recording, and Slow
& Quick Motion functions.
• If you wish to shift the focus in a shot transition,
set the focus adjustment mode to MF or AF (see
page 47). The focus will not be shifted if Full
MF mode is selected.
• If you wish to shift the zoom in a shot transition,
set the ZOOM switch to SERVO (see page 45).
The zoom will not be shifted with the MANU
setting.
• If you register a focus position in a macro area
with the MACRO switch ON, the focus may not
be shifted to the registered position if a shot
transition is executed with the MACRO switch
set to OFF.
