•The image may not seem smooth when you set a high shutter speed.
•When recording at a shutter speed of 1/1000 or lower, make sure the sun is not shining directly into the lens. As the shutter speed gets slower, the camcorder can be harmed by too much light.
•When you specify “Shutter: Manual”, the 
SCENE mode is cancelled, “Super C.Nite” is set to “Off”, and “Aperture” is set to “Auto” automatically.
•Even if the shutter speed is set to 1/10000, the camcorder supports only up to 1/2000 while recording photos.
