Manually Focusing Subject
The DVD Palmcorder measures the distance to a subject viewed at the center of screen and automatically
focuses on it. If it is difficult to automatically focus the subject, adjust the focus manually.
Focusing During Recording

When the DVD Palmcorder is turned on, auto-focus will always be set.
