FOCUS

If correct focus cannot be obtained with AUTO FOCUS, set to MANU to use manual focusing.

” appears.

To focus on a farther subject, rotate the MENU Wheel upward. “1” appears and blinks.

To focus on a nearer subject, rotate the MENU Wheel 1downward. “4” appears and blinking.

If the lens is smeared or blurred, accurate focusing is not possible.

When shooting a subject close to the lens, zoom out first ( pg. 13, “Zooming”). If zoomed in in the auto focus mode, the camcorder could automatically zoom out depending on the distance between the camcorder and the subject.

This does not occur with “TELE MACRO” ( pg. 21) in SYSTEM MENU.

Be sure to focus the lens in the maximum telephoto position when you use the Manual Focus mode. If you focus in on a certain subject in the wide-angle position, sharply focused images cannot be obtained when zoomed in because the depth-of-field is reduced at longer focal lengths.

When the focus level cannot be adjusted any farther or closer, “ ” or “ ” will blink.

EXPOSURE

Manual exposure adjustment is recommended in the following situations:

When shooting using reverse lighting or when the background is too bright.

When shooting on a reflective natural background such as at the beach or when skiing.

When the background is overly dark or the subject light.

1To brighten the image, rotate the MENU Wheel downward.

To darken the image, rotate the MENU Wheel 1 upward.

The exposure control level increases/decreases (maximum ±06).
