Description

Changing the shutter speed and aperture with the VIXIA HF10/HF100

Solution

Use the automatic exposure (AE) program to use functions like the white balance or image effects, or give priority to the exposure value or the shutter speed.

Use faster shutter speeds to record subjects moving quickly; Use slower shutter speeds to add motion blur, emphasizing the feel of movement. Use low aperture values (larger lens opening) to softly blur the background in a portrait; Use high aperture values (smaller lens opening) to get a wider depth of field, giving a sharp focus all throughout a landscape.

Options
