Notes

•In the spotlight, sports lesson and beach & ski modes, you cannot take close-ups. This is because your camcorder is set to focus only on subjects in the middle to far distance.

•In the sunset & moon and landscape modes, your camcorder is set to focus only on distant subjects.

•The bounce function with FADER does not work in the PROGRAM AE mode. •While setting NIGHTSHOT to ON, the PROGRAM AE function does not work. (The

indicator flashes.)
