    							This function locks the shutter speed and iris for
    as long as you shoot when you press the USER
    button (P75)to which the AE lock function has
    been allocated.
    When you zoom in on a subject so that it
    appears larger on the screen and then press the
    USER button, the shutter speed and iris that are
    suitable for the subject are fixed.
    Even when the brightness of the background
    changes, you can shoot the subject at the same
    brightness level.

    SHOOTING
    Shooting techniques for different targets (cont.)
    Using the USER buttons
    You can allocate functions that you have
    selected using the menu to the USER1, USER2
    and USER3 buttons.
    This enables you to change the shooting
    conditions to match the subject or add fade
    effects to the images.
    The USER button functions can be selected
    using the USER1, USER2 and USER3 items on
    the SW MODE screen.  (P75)
    One-touch zooming is initiated while you are
    shooting by pressing the USER button (P75)to
    which you have allocated the (PUSH)
    AF+ZOOM function.
    While this button is held down, the camera-
    recorder zooms in on the subject from the
    current zoom position for a close-up shot and
    focuses automatically.
    When the button is released, the camera-
    recorder returns to the original zoom position.
    This function is useful when you are shooting
    with manual focusing.
    One-touch zooming
    Index recording
    The scene index signals are recorded on the
    tape when you press the USER button (P75)to
    which you have allocated the INDEX function
    during shooting or recording.
    The scene index recording standby status is
    established when you press the USER button in
    the shooting or recording pause mode.
    If you start shooting or recording after pressing
    the USER button, the scene index will be
    recorded on the tape.
    Recording the scene index enables you to
    search (scene index search) scenes during
    playback. (P53)
    USER2 button
    USER3 button USER1 button
    When shooting subjects in backlight conditions,
    press the USER button (P75)to which you have
    allocated the BACKLIGHT (backlight
    compensation) function.
    Backlight compensation prevents the image of
    the subject from turning out dark.
    When the backlight compensation is activated,
    appears on the screen.
    Press the USER button again to release the
    backlight compensation.
    OThis function is activated when auto mode is
    used for the iris adjustment.

    With this camera-recorder, you can select either
    auto focusing or manual focusing.
    When the AUTO/MANUAL selector switch is set
    to MANUAL and the FOCUS button is pressed,
    manual focusing is selected and “MF” appears
    on the screen.
    Use the focus ring to bring the subject into
    focus.
    Press the FOCUS button again to switch back
    to auto focusing.
    OThe subject may not be in focus if you zoom
    out (wide angle), manually focus on the
    subject and then zoom in (telephoto).
    OTo blur the background so that the subject
    stands out, reduce the F-number (opening
    the iris) and focus.
    Conversely, to obtain a greater depth of field
    so that the object in front of and behind the
    subject are also in focus, increase the F-
    number (closing the iris) and focus.

    Backup recording
    You can automatically record backups of the
    camera images on an external unit (P55)
    connected to the DV connector.
    Set the method used to control the external unit
    using the DV CONTROL and DV CMD SEL
    items on the OTHER FUNCTIONS screen.
    (P79)
    Remember the following when you record
    backups of images.
    OThe menu item settings are retained in the
    memory even when the power is turned off.
    This means that if the camera-recorder is
    used with the settings for backup recording
    still in effect, images on tapes in any unit
    that has been connected may be
    overwritten.
    If you have performed backup recording,
    check the menu item settings before you
    operate the camera-recorder.
    OIf another AG-DVC30 is used as the
    external unit for the backup recording,
    select “OFF” as the DV CONTROL item
    setting for the external unit and then set it
    to the VCR mode before use.
    OBackup recording may not work properly if
    two or more external units are connected.
    OMake sure that the DV cable (IEEE 1394)
    used to connect the external unit is not
    more than 4.5 meters long.
    OBefore starting backup recording, make
    sure the external unit is set up to record DV
    signals.
    OWhen backup recording is performed with
    “CHAIN” selected as the DV CONTROL
    item setting, recording will be started
    automatically by the backup unit that has
    been set to the recording standby mode as
    soon as the camera-recorder’s tape
    approaches its end during shooting.
    OIf any of the following operations are
    performed when backup recording is
    performed with “EXT” or “CHAIN” selected
    as the DV CONTROL item setting, the
    pictures or sound recorded by the backup
    unit may be disrupted.

    4When you press the multi dial, the iris and

    OWhen “IRIS” has been selected as the
    FOCUS RING item setting on the SW MODE
    screen using the menus (P68-P71), you can
    use the focus ring to adjust the iris and gain
    but only when you are shooting in the auto
    focus mode. (P76) Synchro scan shutter speeds
    A synchro scan shutter speed is a shutter
    speed used to shoot TV screens or PC
    monitor screens.
    The synchro scan shutter speed is set using
    the SYNCHRO SCAN item on the CAMERA
    SETUP screen when the synchro scan
    shutter speed has been selected by the multi
    dial. (P73)
    OIf you adjust the shutter speed to match the
    frequency of the TV screen or PC monitor
    screen, you can shoot the screen while
    minimizing the horizontal noise that is
    generated when TV screens are shot.
    OWith artificial lighting and especially fluorescent
    lights and mercury-vapor lamps, the luminance
    changes in synchronization with the power line
    frequency. In areas where this frequency is 50
    Hz, mutual interference will occur between the
    camera-recorder’s vertical sync frequency
    (approx. 60 Hz) and the lighting frequency (50
    Hz). This means that the white balance may
    change periodically.
    Before shooting in areas with a 50 Hz frequency
    or adjusting the white balance, set the shutter
    speed to 1/100.
    OThe higher the shutter speed, the lower the
    camera’s sensitivity.
    OIf the shutter speed is increased when the auto
    iris is set (when the F-number is not displayed),
    the iris will open (the F-number is reduced) so
    that the background is more blurred and the
    subject stands out.
    OShooting at a slow shutter speed may give rise
    to such problems as after-image, a deterioration
    in the image quality and difficulties in focusing.
    OWhen a slow shutter speed has been selected,
    images are shot with the CCD taking more time
    than usual to accumulate the signals.
    As a result, very small brilliant points that are
    not usually visible may be recorded as the
    images: this is normal and does not indicate an
    error or malfunctioning.

    							If you press the USER button to which the AWB
    LOCK function has been allocated (P75)when
    you are shooting in the auto white balance
    mode, the white balance at the time the button
    was pressed is used until the button is pressed
    again. 
    Each time the button is pressed, the camera-
    recorder switches between auto white balance
    and AWB lock.

    SHOOTING
    White balance adjustments
    When you shoot with the AUTO/MANUAL
    selector switch at the AUTO position, the white
    balance is adjusted automatically while scenes
    are being recorded.
    As the white balance sensor is used to detect
    the light source during shooting so the camera-
    recorder can adjust the white balance, do not
    cover the sensor with your hand or anything
    else.
    Select the white balance setting mode if the
    white balance needs to be adjusted very
    precisely.
    OBefore shooting in areas with a 50 Hz power
    line frequency or adjusting the white balance,
    set the shutter speed to 1/100.
