Before recording

Basic camera positioning

1Hold the unit with both hands.

2Put your hand through the grip belt.

3It is convenient to use the recording button icon A when holding the unit at waist level. ≥ When recording, make sure your footing is stable and there is no danger of colliding with

another person or object.

≥ When you are outdoors, record pictures with the sunlight behind you. If the subject is backlit, it will become dark in the recording.

≥ Keep your arms near your body and separate your legs for better balance. ≥ Do not cover the microphones or the cooling fan inlet with your hand etc.

Basic motion picture recording

The unit should normally be held steady when recording.

If you move the unit when recording, do so slowly, maintaining a constant speed.

The zoom operation is useful for recording subjects you cannot get close to, but overuse of zoom in and zoom out can make the resulting motion picture less enjoyable to watch.
