Canon AF514XL-S - Manual (Page 96)

FILMING A TELEVISION SCREEN
Since this camera has a wide shutter
sector, it is very effective for filming a
dimly-lit subject, such as the image from
a TV screen.
1. Set the filming speed dial ® to 18.
2. If you are filming a color TV and Type A
film is loaded, set the CCA filter switch
® to uncover the sun symbol ^
and adjust the TV image to a reddish
tone.
3. To focus, turn the focus mode switch
@ to “L”, compose the picture so that
a side edge of the TV screen bisects
the autofocus circle and press the
shutter trigger halfway to lock the
focus. Then start filming.
Notes
1. Avoid window reflections and light
from other sources, such as a lamp.
2. Depending on the broadcasting sys­
tem, some stripes may show up in a
film of a TV image.
3. For synchronized sound recording
from the TV, see p. 53.
