Appendix: Menu Options Lists

[ND Filter]: Available in any recording program other than the Special Scene recording programs. When set to [kAutomatic], ND filter settings will be available when the aperture value is F4.0.

[Conversion Lens]: When you attach to the camcorder the optional TL-H58 Tele-converter or WA-H58 Wide Attachment, set the appropriate conversion lens setting. The camcorder will then optimize the image stabilization and adjust the minimum object distance. The minimum object distance throughout the entire zoom range will be 130 cm (4 ft. 3 in.) for the Tele-converter and about 60 cm (2 ft.) for the

146Wide Attachment. When you select [¿WA-H58] and you zoom in, the zoom position marker will stop before reaching the end of the zoom bar.

•This Wide Attachment decreases the focal length by a factor of 0.75.

•When you select a setting other than [jOff], the AF mode is automatically set to [@Normal AF].

•The approximate subject distance displayed on the screen will change depending on the setting. If you are not using an optional lens, select [jOff].

[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.

[Microphone Attenuator]: Helps prevent audio distortions. ou can use this setting when using an external microphone or when [—Audio Scene] is set to [„Custom Setting].

[kAutomatic]: The camcorder will automatically activate the microphone attenuator as necessary for optimal audio recording levels so high audio levels will not be distorted.

[iOn]: The microphone attenuator will be activated at all times to reproduce more faithfully the sound dynamics.

[Surround Mic Directionality]: Sets the directionality mode of the optional SM-V1 Surround Microphone.

[òSurround]: Records 5.1ch surround sound.

[óZoom]: Records 5.1 audio channels. Additionally, the audio is linked to the zoom position. The larger the subject appears on the screen, the louder the sound will be as well.

[ôShotgun]: Records monaural audio with a highly directional setting that is most sensitive to sound coming directly from the front of the camcorder/microphone.
