The camcorder can display a simplified waveform monitor. It can also display an edge monitor* to help
you focus. The video scopes appear only on the LCD screen. They do not appear in the viewfinder or
on an external monitor.
* The edge monitor looks at the focus of the entire picture and displays the results as a waveform.
