FEATURE: Auto Focus

PURPOSE:

The camcorder’s Full Range AF system offers continuous shooting ability from close-up (as close as approx. 5 cm to the subject) to infinity.

However, correct focus may not be obtainable in the situations listed below (in these cases use manual focusing):

When two subjects overlap in the same scene.

When illumination is low.*

When the subject has no contrast (difference in brightness and darkness), such as a flat, one-colour wall, or a clear, blue sky.*

When a dark object is barely visible in the viewfinder.*

When the scene contains minute patterns or identical patterns that are regularly repeated.

When the scene is affected by sunbeams or light reflecting off the surface of a body of water.

When shooting a scene with a high-contrast background.

* The following low-contrast warnings appear blinking: , , and

NOTES:

If the lens is smeared or blurred, accurate focusing is not possible. Keep the lens clean, wiping with a piece of soft cloth if it gets dirty. When condensation occurs, wipe with a soft cloth or wait for it to dry naturally.

When shooting a subject close to the lens, zoom out first ( pg. 18). If zoomed-in in the auto focus mode, the

camcorder may automatically zoom out depending on the distance between the camcorder and the subject. This will not occur when “TELE MACRO” ( pg. 48) is activated.

FEATURE: Manual Focus

PURPOSE:

To obtain correct focus.

OPERATION:

1)If you are using the viewfinder, you should already have made the necessary viewfinder adjustments ( pg. 10).

2)Set the Power Switch to “MANUAL ” while pressing down the Lock Button located on the switch, then press FOCUS ( pgs. 80 and 81, # FOCUS Button) The manual focus indicator appears.

4)Press the MENU/BRIGHT wheel in. Focus adjustment is complete.

To reset to Auto Focus, press FOCUS twice or set the Power Switch to “AUTO ”.

If FOCUS is pressed once, the camcorder will enter the focus adjustment mode again.

NOTES:

Be sure to focus the lens in the maximum telephoto position when you use the Manual Focus mode. If you focus in on a subject in the wide-angle position, sharply focused images cannot be obtained when zoomed up because the depth-of-field is reduced at longer focal lengths.

When the focus level cannot be adjusted any further or closer, “ ” or “ ” will blink.
