Fading In and Out

If you wish to fade into or fade out on a shot you will use the FADE button. When you press the FADE button the picture and sound will slowly fade to black and silence. When you release the FADE button the picture and sound will slowly fade up to the camera shot and full audio level.

So, to fade into a first shot, compose your first shot in the viewfinder. Then hold down the FADE button until the screen is black. While holding the FADE button down, start recording. After a few seconds release the FADE button and the picture will fade in.

To fade out on a last shot, start recording the shot as you would any other. At the end of the shot, hold down the FADE button. When the picture has faded down to black hold it down and record black for a few seconds. Stop the recording then release the FADE button.
