ªAbout the shutter chance mark

The shutter chance mark does not appear in manual focus mode.

When the subject is not easily focused, focus on the subject manually.

You can record still pictures on the card even if the shutter chance mark does not appear, but pictures may be recorded without being focused.

The shutter chance mark does not appear or has difficulty displaying in the following cases. When the zoom magnification is high. When the Camcorder is shaken.

When the subject is moving.

When the subject stands in front of a light source.

When close subjects and far subjects are included in the same scene.

When there is a bright part in the scene.

When the scene is filled with only horizontal lines.

ªConcerning the focusing area

When there is a contrasting object ahead or behind the subject in the focus area, the subject may not be focused. If so, move the contrasting object out of the focus area.

Even when it is still difficult to focus, adjust the focus manually.

When zooming in and taking a picture while holding the Camcorder by hand, we recommend using the image stabilizer function.

When you are zooming in on a faraway subject, a sharper focus is achieved if the recording subject is 1 m (3.3 feet) or further from the Camcorder.

When the zoom speed is high, the subject may not be focused easily.

When the zoom magnification is 1k, the Camcorder can focus on a subject approx. 4 cm (1.6 inches) away from the lens.

Be aware that a mechanical sound may be recorded when the [W/T] lever is released while zooming. Gently move the zoom lever back to it’s original position before releasing it.
