If the subject is not suitable for autofocus, the focusing frame turns yellow and locks the focus. The confirmation sound beeps once. Adjust the focus manually with the focus ring.

The focusing frame gives an indication of the focusing point. Depending on the size of the subject or the distance, the camcorder may focus outside the frame.

When the subject is too bright (overexposed), “OVEREXP” starts flashing. If you have turned off the built-in ND filter, we recommend changing the setting back to AUTO. Open the menu and select [CAMERA SET UP]. Select [ND FILTER], set it to [AUTO] and close the menu.

“OVEREXP” does not appear when you press the EXP button.
