Additional Information

• We recommend setting the image stabilizer to [ OFF] when using a tripod.

[WIDESCREEN]: The camcorder uses the full width of the image sensor providing high- resolution 16:9 recordings.

Since the screen on the camcorder has an aspect ratio of 16:9, recordings with a 4:3 aspect ratio will appear in the center of the screen with black sidebars.

Playing back a widescreen recording: TV sets compatible with the WSS system will automatically switch to wide (16:9) mode. Otherwise, change the aspect ratio of the TV manually. To play back on a TV with normal aspect ratio (4:3) change the [TV TYPE]

setting accordingly ( 87).

The camcorder retains the last setting used even if you set the camcorder to mode.

[FOCUS PRI.]: When the focus priority is activated, the camcorder records a photo only after the focus has been adjusted automatically. You can also select which AF frames to use.

[ ON:AiAF]: One or more AF frames out of the nine frames available are automatically selected and the focus is fixed on them.

[ ON:CENTER]: A single focusing frame appears in the center of the screen and the focus is automatically fixed on it.

[ OFF]: No AF frame will appear and the photo will be recorded immediately after you press PHOTO .

• When the recording program is set to [ FIREWORKS], focus priority is

automatically set to [ OFF].

[A.SL SHUTTER]: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter speeds to obtain brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting.

The camcorder uses shutter speeds down to 1/25 (1/12 in mode).

The setting can be changed when the camcorder is set to or mode. The

camcorder retains the last setting used even if you set the camcorder to mode.

If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [ OFF].

If (camcorder shake warning) appears, we recommend stabilizing the camcorder, for example, by mounting it on a tripod.

[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 ].
