Front Light and Back Light

The camcorder adjusts the light automatically under normal conditions. You might need to adjust for a strong front light or back light (such as spotlights or subjects standing in front of a window with the sun at their backs). You can adjust for a strong front or back light using the AE dial, FRONTLIGHT button, or BACKLIGHT button.
