[Wind Screen]: The camcorder automatically reduces the background sound of wind when recording outdoors.

Some low-frequency sounds will be suppressed along with the sound of wind. When recording in surroundings unaffected by wind or if you want to record low-frequency sounds, we recommend setting the wind

screen to [ Off ].

[Microphone Attenuator]: Helps prevent audio distortions in due to high audio recording levels.

Set the microphone attenuator to [ On ] when the audio record- ing level ( 78) is set correctly but the audio still sounds distorted.

When the microphone attenuator is activated, appears on the screen.

[Focus Assist Functions]: When the focus assist functions are activated, the image at the center of the screen is magnified to help you focus manually ( 71).

When face detection is activated, instead of the center of the picture, the camcorder will magnify the face of the person identified as the main subject.

Using the focus assist functions will not affect the recordings. They will be cancelled automatically after 4 seconds or when you start recording.

[Onscreen Markers]: You can display a grid or a horizontal line at the center of the screen. Use the markers as a reference to make sure your subject is framed correctly (vertically and/or horizontally).

• Using the onscreen markers will not affect the recordings.
