NOTES

The camcorder’s ND filter cannot be changed using the ND button on the remote controller.

When the camcorder is set to full auto mode (A49), settings related to the aperture, gain, shutter speed and white balance (except for [R Gain] and [B Gain] in the custom picture's [White Balance] settings) cannot be changed using the remote controller.

Custom picture settings can be changed using the remote controller only when an appropriate custom picture file is selected (A132).
