The Auto Focus/Manual Focus function works in both Camera and
M.Cam modes.
In most situations, it is better to use the automatic focus feature, as
it enables you to concentrate on the creative side of your recording.
Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that
make automatic focusing difficult and/or unreliable.
Manual Focus can be set in the Quick Menu.
If you are inexperienced in the use of
Camcorders, we recommend that you make
use of Auto Focus.
In the following situations, you may obtain
better results by adjusting the focus manually.
a. A picture containing several objects, some
close to the Camcorder, others further away.
b. A person enveloped in fog or surrounded by
snow.
c. Very shiny or glossy surfaces like a car.
d. People or objects moving constantly or quickly
like an athlete or a crowd.
