Attaching the Shoulder Strap
For extra security and portability, attach the shoulder strap before using the
camcorder.

Pass the ends through the strap mount

and adjust the length of the strap.

Mounting the Wide Attachment
The WA-30.5 Wide Attachment gives you a wide perspective for indoor shots or
panoramic views (0.6×). The wide attachment is for use at maximum wide-angle.

Screw the wide attachment fully into

the lens filter thread.

❍If you zoom to telephoto, the picture will not be in focus.
❍Do not look directly at the sun or other strong light sources through the wide
attachment. It could damage your eyesight.
❍When recording in wide angle with the wide attachment, the outer periphery
of the image may become curved.
❍Filters cannot be used with the wide attachment.
❍If dust accumulates on the wide attachment or on the camcorder lens, clean
both lenses gently with a blower brush.
❍The wide attachment may obstruct the remote sensor (the range of the
wireless controller narrows), or may cause a shadow to appear on the picture
when recording with a video light or the assist lamp (White LED).
❍Do not touch the lens to avoid smudges and fingerprints.
❍Do not store the wide attachment in a humid place as it may mold.
