• Do not aim at the sun. Doing so might cause your camcorder to malfunction. Take images of the
sun only in low light conditions, such as at dusk.
• The image may not seem smooth when a high shutter speed is selected.
• A higher shutter speed is recommended for shooting a fast moving subject. Note that higher
shutter speeds produce a darker image. As the shutter speed increases, the sensor accepts
less light.
