Features for recording
Editing
NIGHT
:
Makes dark subjects or areas even brighter
than they would be under good natural
lighting. Although the recorded image is not
grainy, it may look as if it is strobing due to
the slow shutter speed. During Night-Scope,
it may be diffi cult to bring the camcorder
into focus. To prevent this, use of a tripod is
recommended.
