Sony RX100 II -- defaults to wrong shutter speed for video

I'm trying to shoot video with my Sony RX100 II (I love it for b-roll as it's so discreet), and whether I'm in manual, aperture, shutter or auto mode, the dang shutter speed won't go below 1/100th of a second. In manual mode, for instance, I set the shutter speed to 1/50th and as soon as I hit the "record" button, it switches immediately to 1/100th (and the video gets darker, of course).

Video is set as 25p/24M, and I can't see any settings at all that would cause this issue.

This seems to be a new problem -- any thoughts would be appreciated.
 
Never mind I figured it out, you have to be shooting in movie mode, then set manual, aperture, shutter, etc. from there. Shooting from camera mode seems to limit the choices.
