The image is out of focus.

●The diopter needs to be adjusted (☞ pg. 8).

●The scene being shot is adversely affecting the operation of Auto Focus (☞ pg. 22).

●Shift Zoom (☞ pg. 15) is in use. Beyond the optical zoom limit, magnification is achieved through digital processing. This will cause the image to look as though it’s out of focus.

A character generator title and the date and time displays disappear from the viewfinder.

●If you remove the power source from the camcorder while the power is on, all settings and selections are erased. Make sure to turn the camcorder’s power off before disconnecting the power source.

Even though the Lens Cover is open, the Lens Cover Warning indicator blinks.

●The Lens Cover Warning indicator may blink when the camcorder is used in dark areas, regardless of the position of the Lens Cover.

The camcorder is a microcomputer-controlled device. External noise and interference (from a TV, a radio, etc.) might prevent it from functioning properly. In such cases, first disconnect its power supply unit (battery pack, AC Power Adapter/Battery Charger, etc.) and clock battery; and then re-connect it and proceed as usual from the beginning.
