Notes on how to use camera for recording.

Setting 
  • 1080p 25fps (1920X1080) HD
  • Check before using the camera as it maybe be changed.
Exposure 
  • Shutter speed makes it darker or lighter - always should be on 50.
  • Aperture; this is a ring between the lens and it affects the depth of focus (different focus)
  • ISO - the lighting 
  • Q in a box on the camera takes you to the quick menu.
  • Picture style should be neutral (found in the Q menu)
  • White balance should be AWB.
  • Filming should be manual focus - MF near the ring of the lens, the ring on the lens is used to focus (small ring (big ring is for zooming in and zooming out)).
