1. Start shooting after setting the variable shut­
ter control dial while pressing the lock button in
the closed position.
2. Return the variable shutter control dial to the
■joC- setting controlling the time with your finger.
3. When it is completely open, shoot as much as
you wish. Thus the normal light amount exposes
the picture image.
* Fading is not possible between the BTl setting
and the ■Jog- setting because the exposure ad­
justment is made automatically by the meter.
* Fading is an important technique for movie
making, used for changing scenes, for the in­
troduction or the end. During the movie, fading
is used for big scene changes or to indicate the
passing of time, so it should not be used too
frequently. When fading is used for changing
scenes, it should usually last from 2 to 3 seconds.
At the beginning and the end of the movie, it
should last about 4 to 6 seconds.
