To display the audio level indicator
Usually, the audio level indicator will be displayed only after activating the manual adjustment of the
audio recording level. You can choose to display it also when the audio level is adjusted automatically.
1 Open the automatic audio recording level screen.
[FUNC.] > [ä Mic Level] > [m] (automatic)
2 Touch [Audio Level Indicator] and then touch [X].
NOTES
When the audio level meter reaches the red point (0 dB), the sound may be distorted.
We recommend using headphones to check the sound level while adjusting the audio recording
level or when the microphone attenuator is activated.
Wind Screen (Built-in Microphone)
The camcorder automatically reduces the background sound of wind when recording outdoors. You
can select from two levels or turn off the auto wind screen.

NOTES
Some low-frequency sounds will be suppressed along with the sound of wind. When recording in
surroundings unaffected by wind or if you want to record low-frequency sounds, we recommend
setting [Built-in Mic Wind Screen] to [j Off à].
Microphone Attenuator (Built-in Microphone)
If the audio level is too high and the audio sounds distorted while recording with the built-in
microphone, activate the microphone attenuator (12 dB).
Operating modes:
[H Auto (High)]
The camcorder will automatically activate the built-in microphone wind screen at a
high level, as necessary.
[L Auto (Low) ] The camcorder will automatically activate the built-in microphone wind screen at a
low level, as necessary.
