Notes
■In EASY mode, certain functions are not available, such as MENU, BLC, AF/MF. - If you want to use these functions, you must first switch the EASY mode off.
■The EASY mode settings are deleted when the battery pack is uninstalled from the camcorder and therefore, they must be reset when a battery pack has been replaced.
