[. . . ] These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. [. . . ] If you select this Easy Recording program, you cannot use: • Exposure lock or compensation • Different shutter speeds • White balance set/indoor/outdoor modes • 16:9 effect • Digital Effects Also, autofocus and image stabilization cannot be turned off. Using the Full Range of Features [ 37 E Auto In normal recording conditions, set the POWER switch to P , and choose AUTO from the program menu. This is the same as the Easy Recording program, except that you now have the option of using any of the camera’s manual functions — you can adjust focus and exposure, set the white balance, and so on. You can only adjust shutter speeds in the Auto Recording program. AUTO Sports This program is useful for recording high-speed sports scenes in brightly lit conditions. Normal playback will be slightly jerky, but you will get clear images which can be analyzed frame by frame during slow or paused playback on a VCR. SPORTS Portrait Using the Full Range of Features Use this program outdoors to make subjects stand out from a softened foreground and background. It works well for still-lifes and close-ups. The effect is most noticeable when the zoom position is between the middle range and the telephoto end. Focus manually for maximum accuracy, and be careful when recording action scenes, as this program may cause fast moving objects to shudder. PORTRAIT 38 Spotlight This program is designed for recording spotlit scenes, such as on a stage. The exposure is automatically adjusted for glare-free recordings of subjects lit by a concentrated light source. SPOTLIGHT E Sand & Snow Use this program in places where the background is so bright that the subject appears underexposed in the display — a sunny beach or ski resort, for example. You may notice some shudder when recording moving subjects. SAND&SNOW Low Light This program allows you to record in dimly lit places. It is generally best used for close-ups of slow or stationary subjects, as moving subjects may leave a trailing after-image. However, you can take advantage of this to create special effects, by rapid zooming or by panning along with a moving subject. Select 16:9 from the camera menu and turn the effect ON/OFF. Press the MENU button once more to close the menu. Notes: • “16:9” is shown in the display when you switch the 16:9 effect on. • You cannot use the 16:9 digital effect with the Easy Recording program. • If you play back a recording made for 16:9 on a normal TV screen, the image will appear to be vertically “squashed” (compressed). 43 Audio Recording E Selecting the audio mode AUDIO MODE••16bt i (see p. 28) CN-E30-300MM T2. 95-3. 7 LS can record sound in two audio modes — 16 bit (48kHz, 2 channel) and 12 bit (32 kHz, 4 channel). The 16 bit mode produces the higher sound quality (slightly superior to CD) while the 12 bit mode records on two channels (stereo 1), leaving two channels free (stereo 2) for you to add new sound at a later date. 1. To switch to the 12 bit mode open the camera menu and select AUDIO MODE. Select “12 bit” and close the menu. • “12 bit” is shown in the display for approximately 4 seconds. Notes: • You cannot add new sound to a tape using this camcorder. • For details of playing back a tape that has new sound on stereo 2, see page 63. Headphones and external microphone For greater creative control over audio recording, you can connect an external microphone to the camera via the DU-100 Docking Unit’s MIC terminal. You can monitor the sound while recording by attaching stereo terminal headphones to the camera’s (this terminal also doubles as the Audio Video Out socket).
