Using the Wide-angle Converter

The optional Wide-angle Converter WL-37 can be used to provide wide-angle shots (approx. 0.74the normal focal distance).

Mount the wide-angle converter correctly so that it is level and fitted securely onto the camera. When mounted correctly, the wide-angle converter should turn roughly 3 times before stopping.

The Wide-angle Converter WL-37 cannot be used on the VC-C50iR. If the converter is used on the VC-C50iR, the mount will gradually loosen and the converter will fall off the camera.

The camera may not operate correctly if a wide-angle converter other than the WL-37 is used.

NOTE The permissible range of camera installation angles with the wide-angle

converter mounted on the camera is ±15° from the horizontal.

The wide-angle converter cannot be used in night mode. (P.33)
