Shutter
Use Shutter to select the exposure time (shutter speed / shutter angle). You can change the shutter settings while recording.
You can switch between angle and time by using the Status Settings or by pressing and holding the button above SHUTTER on the Home Page (refer to Home Page).
Decreasing shutter speed increases the amount of time that light hits the sensor, which increases exposure and motion blur of moving objects. Increasing shutter speed decreases the amount of time that light hits the sensor, which decreases exposure and motion blur of moving objects.
Shutter Angle
Enter the exposure value as a shutter angle (xx°). The shutter angle range is 0° to 360°. The default shutter angle is 180°. Click Edit to enter an exact shutter angle or shutter speed.

Shutter Speed
Enter the exposure value as a shutter speed (1/xx sec).
The slowest shutter speed is 1/(recording frame rate). For example, if the recording frame rate is 23.98 fps, the slowest available shutter speed is 1/23.98 sec. The fastest shutter speed is 1/8000 sec. The default shutter speed is 1/47.95 sec.
Convert Shutter Speed to Shutter Angle
Shutter Angle = (Shutter Speed x Frame Rate x 360)
Example: (1/47.95 x 23.98 x 360) = 180
Convert Shutter Angle to Shutter Speed
Shutter Speed = 1/(Frame Rate x 360/Angle)
Example: 1/(23.98 x 360/180) = 1/47.95
