LCD Monitor/Viewfinder/Lens Hood
LCD Monitor
≥
In a place with drastic temperature changes,
condensation may take place on the LCD Monitor.
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥
If your Palmcorder is extremely cold when you turn
its power on, the image on the LCD Monitor will be
slightly darker than usual at first. However, as the
internal temperature increases, it goes back to the
normal brightness.
..................................................................................
Extremely high precision technology is employed to
produce the LCD Monitor screen featuring a total of
approximately 113,000 pixels. The result is more
than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of
the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not
a malfunction and does not affect the recorded
picture.
..................................................................................
Viewfinder
≥
Do not direct the Viewfinder or Lens to the sun.
Internal components may be seriously damaged.
≥
When the Palmcorder is used with a large capacity
Battery attached to it, it is not practical to look in
the Viewfinder from behind the Battery. In this
case, lift up the Viewfinder to an easy-to-see
angle.

Extremely high precision technology is employed to
produce the Viewfinder screen featuring a total of
approximately 113,000 pixels. The result is more
than 99.99% active pixels with a mere 0.01% of the
pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not a
malfunction and does not affect the recorded
picture.

Lens Hood
≥
Do not attach other conversion lenses in front of
the Lens Hood; there is no mount to be used for
the attachment.
≥
If you want to attach the Tele Conversion Lens
(not supplied) or the Wide Conversion Lens (not
supplied), MC Protector (not supplied) or ND Filter
(not supplied) first of all, turn the Lens Hood
counter-clockwise. If the MC Protector (not
supplied) or ND Filter (not supplied) is used, the
Lens Hood can be mounted on the filter.
≥
If you push the [W/T] Lever toward [W] during
recording with the filter or conversion lens
attached to the Palmcorder, the 4 corners of the
image may become dark (vignetting). For details,
please refer to the operating instructions for your
accessories.
≥
Be sure to keep the Lens Hood attached to the
Palmcorder so as to shut out unnecessary light.
Explanation of Terms
ª
Digital Video System
In a digital video system, images and sounds are
converted into digital signals and recorded on a
tape. This complete digital recording is capable of
recording and playback with minimal image and
sound deterioration.
In addition, it automatically records data, such as
Time Code and date/time, as digital signals.
Compatibility with S-VHS or VHS Cassettes
Because this Palmcorder employs a digital system
for recording image and sound data, the cassette is
not compatible with conventional S-VHS or VHS
video equipment that employs an analog recording
system.
The size and shape of the Cassettes are also
different.
Compatibility with Output Signals
Because AV signal output from the AV signal output
jack is analog (the same as conventional video
systems), this Palmcorder can be connected with
S-VHS or VHS VCR or a TV for playback.

Focus
Auto Focus Adjustment
The Auto Focus System automatically moves the
internal focusing lens forward or backward and
adjusts the focus so that the subject can be seen
clearly.
However, the Auto Focus System does not function
properly for the following subjects or under the
following recording conditions.
Please use the Manual Focus Mode instead.
1) Recording a subject whose one end is
located closer to the Palmcorder and the
other end farther away from it
≥
Because Auto Focus makes adjustments at
the center of an image, it may be impossible to
focus on a subject that is located in both
foreground and background.
2) Recording a subject behind dirty or dusty
glass
≥
Because the focus is on the dirty glass, the
subject behind the glass will not be in focus.
3) Recording a subject in dark surroundings
≥
Because the light information that comes
through the lens decreases considerably, the
Palmcorder may not focus correctly.
