ENGLISH
38
✤ The MF/AF function works in the CAMERAmode only.
✤ 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 inadequate.
Auto Focusing
✤ The AF (Auto Focus) mode is set automatically when you switch on the Power switch.
✤ If you are inexperienced with camcorders, we recommend that you use the Auto Focus mode.
Manual Focusing
✤ In the following cases you should obtain better results by adjusting the focus manually.
a. A picture containing several objects, some close to the cam-
corder, 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
crowd.
1. Set the power switch to CAMERAmode and LOCK/STANDBY
switch to STANDBY mode. (see page 22)
2. Press the MF button.
3. Zoom in the subject to be recorded by pushing the ZOOM tab to
