Below the LCD screen there are five buttons.
The four buttons next to
FUNC
. have two levels
of labeling – the top
REW, FFWD, PLAY/
PAUSE & STOP
are only active in
PLAY
mode.
W & T
– these buttons are another way to zoom
the camera in and out. This is not a variable
control zoom so it always zooms in and out at
the same speed. (See notes on the Zoom Toggle
button.)
START/STOP
– this is another way to start
and stop recording.
BLC
– This button activates an automatic back
light adjustment setting. It may or may not be a
useful way to additionally control the exposure.
It is for the situation when you are shooting a
subject with an unusually bright backlight. (It is
not recommended over adjusting the exposure
manually.)
FUNC.
– this button brings up an onscreen
menu.
P
: Program AE – This sub-menu allows you
to switch between video capturing modes.
Each mode has different options. (See the
manual for more details.)
We recommend
using “P” mode.
