Manually Focusing Subject
The DVD video camera/recorder usually focuses on a subject automatically (autofocus). You can also
manually focus a subject depending on the recording conditions.

Note
:
•
Pressing FOCUS will alternate between manual focus
and auto focus. With auto focus, no indication will
appear on the screen.
•
Be sure to zoom in on your subject before manually
focusing on it. If you bring the subject into focus at the
“W” control side, focus will be faulty when you turn the
zoom lever to the “T” control side to zoom in on the
subject.
•
Manual focus is released when the DVD video
camera/recorder is turned off. When you turn the DVD
video camera/recorder on next time, auto focus will be
restored.
