About the AF-Assist Lamp:
While you press
halfway, if the subject is too
dark the assist lamp may light up briefly
in order to enable the camcorder to
focus more accurately (AF-assist lamp).
You can also set [AF AST LAMP] to
[
OFF] so the assist lamp does not
light up (
46).
- The camcorder may not be able to
focus even if the AF-assist lamp is on.
- The brightness of the AF-assist lamp
could be an inconvenience. Consider
turning it off in public places such as
restaurants.
• The built-in mini video light may be
disabled automatically when you attach
the optional VFL-1 Video Flash Light. To
use the built-in mini video light, set the
switch on the VFL-1 to OFF first.
