Viewfinder Display

The AE indicator for the shutter speed selected (1/60, 1/100, 1/120, 1/180, 1/250, 1/350, 1/500, 1/750, 1/1000,

1/1500, 1/2000, or 1/4000 second) appears in the viewfinder.

Auto Focus

The camcorder will focus on the subject in the center of the viewfinder.

Auto focus operates on the telephoto “T” side from approximately 3.6 feet to infinity and on the wide-angle “W” side 3/8 of an inch from the lens surface to infinity.

The following conditions may prevent auto focus from operating properly.

•Subject has close foreground and background far away.

•Two subjects at different distances that overlap.

•Subject with distinct horizontal stripes or small pattern.

•Subject not in center of the viewfinder.

•Subject with shiny surfaces or sharp angles.

•Recording in low-light situations.

•Recording through a window.

Macro Focus

The macro-focus feature lets you focus on objects as close as 3/8 of an inch from the camcorder lens.

1.Press and hold zoom button “W” until the lens is completely zoomed out.

2.Position the subject in the center of the viewfinder.

Notes: Zooming is not possible when using macro focus. To change the size of the subject, move the camcorder’s lens closer or farther away from it.

For best results, increase illumination when recording using macro focus.
