What is the zebra pattern?
The zebra pattern is diagonal stripes that appear in portions of the screen where brightness meets or exceeds a preset level. It is useful as a guide when adjusting the exposure before recording. The zebra pattern is not recorded on a tape or Memory Stick Duo. Your camcorder has two options to display the zebra pattern. • 70: The zebra pattern appears in portions of the screen where brightness is about 70 IRE. • 100: The zebra pattern appears in portions of the screen where brightness is about 100 IRE or more.
