Now you are ready for underwater recording.

Recording a still image

You can record a still image on a tape or “Memory Stick” by pressing PHOTO button. (Some models, however, can only record onto a tape, even if a “Memory Stick” can be inserted.)

Note that pressing PHOTO button lightly does not allow you to check the recorded image. For more details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with your camcorder.

To keep a subject in focus

Press AUTO FOCUS ON/OFF button to set it to OFF. You can still keep the subject in focus even if fish swim between the camcorder and the subject. Press AUTO FOCUS ON/OFF button again to set the camcorder to auto focus mode.

Note

Do not cover the control emitter or detector with your finger as the remote control signal for operations is transmitted from the grip to the marine pack.
