This section describes the structure of the control system built around the viewfinder menu
and the side panel menu. It explains how to set up the camcorder for your personal
preferences. The camcorder functions and their values are also explained.
Operationally, the camcorder is very easy to use. However, because of the large number of
functions available and the large number of set-up options, it may require some time for you to
become familiar with them all. We recommend that you spend time using the various controls
and displays in order to discover the wide range of possibilities.
The functions of the camcorder are grouped into menus and submenus. There are two
separate menu systems in the camcorder:
•
The
side panel menu
is shown on the side panel display on the left side of the camcorder
and is controlled by tapping the screen with your finger. It contains all functions for
configuring the camcorder and for post-processing recorded material.
–
The side panel menu is best suited for off-shoulder use.
•
The
viewfinder menu
is displayed as a text overlay in the viewfinder. It can be controlled
by the
rotary
control and the
select
button at the front of the camcorder.
–
The viewfinder menu contains operational controls, making it easy to use the
camcorder on the shoulder.
Additionally, there are two optional external control panels that can be used to control the
camcorder:
•
The Wireless Local Control Panel LCP 400 is control software application that runs on a
mobile device such as a PDA or TouchPhone. Refer to the user’s guide of the LCP 400 to
set up a remote connection and control the camcorder
•
The Operational Control Panel OCP 400 offers remote access to the camcorders functions
and is best suited for studio use. Refer to the user’s guide of the OCP 400 to set up a
remote connection and control the camcorder.
