Troubleshooting (Continued)
Shutter speed, gain, white balance or iris cannot be adjusted manually.
• Set the AUTO/MANUAL switch to MANUAL.
Tiny spots in white, red, blue, or green appear on the screen.
• This phenomenon appears when using a slow shutter speed (p. 27). This is not a malfunction.
Subjects passing by the frame very fast appear crooked.
• This is called the focal plane phenomenon. This is not a malfunction. Because of the way that
the image device (CMOS sensor) reads out image signals, subjects passing by the frame
rapidly might appear crooked depending on the recording conditions.
The screen picture is bright, and the subject does not appear on the screen.
• Set [BACK LIGHT] to [OFF].
• Set [HYPER GAIN] to [OFF].
The screen picture is dark, and the subject does not appear on the screen.
• Press and hold the DISPLAY/BATT INFO button for a few seconds to turn on the backlight
(p. 14).
