Recording

Use the Viewfinder

The camcorder’s viewfinder is a miniature monitor that displays the picture seen by the camcorder when recording. When the LCD monitor is open more than 60º, the viewfinder is automatically turned off.

Adjust Viewfinder for Convenient Viewing

For convenient viewing, you can slide the viewfinder out from the camcorder and rotate it up and down.

Eyepiece Focus Control

The eyepiece focus control lets you set the focus of the viewfinder for your personal vision. If you wear eyeglasses,

you probably can operate the camcorder without them.

It is easiest to set the correct focus by focusing on one of the viewfinder’s on- screen displays.

Look through the viewfinder and adjust the eyepiece focus control for your vision.

The eyepiece focus control does not affect the focus of the picture actually recorded by the camcorder.

Cautions

Do not force the LCD monitor or viewfinder to rotate completely around. This will damage the monitor, viewfinder, and/or the camcorder.

When carrying the camcorder with the shoulder strap, close and lock the LCD monitor and put the viewfinder down and slide it in. This helps prevent possible damage to the monitor or viewfinder from bumping against your body as you move.
