Adjusting the Focus
This camcorder features 4 methods for adjusting the focus. When you
use full manual focus or manual focus, you can use the peaking and
magnification functions to help you focus more accurately.
Full manual focus (FULL MF): Use the focus ring to adjust the focus. The
focus ring is non-perpetual (the ring has physical stops) and you can use
the ring’s distance indicator. You can focus from 1 m (3.3 ft.) to
f
throughout the entire zoom range.
Manual focus (MF): Use the focus ring to adjust the focus. The focus ring
is perpetual (the ring has no physical stops) and you cannot use the ring’s
distance indicator.
Autofocus (AF): The camcorder continuously adjusts the focus
automatically. When using autofocus, you can select either Instant AF or
Normal AF mode. You can also use the focus ring (with no physical
stops).
Push AF (PUSH AF): When you are using MF or Normal AF, you can
switch the focus to Instant AF while you keep the PUSH AF button
pressed down.
In manual focus, autofocus and Push AF modes, you can set the

[Focus Limit] setting (

2 cm (0.8 in.; at full wide angle) to
f
. If you set it to [On], the focus range
will be 1 m (3.3 ft.) to
f
throughout the entire zoom range.
Full Manual Focus Mode
When you use full manual focus mode, you can adjust the focus manually
using only the focus ring. Because the focus ring is non-perpetual, you
can easily know where the macro and infinity ends are. Additionally, the
focus ring indicates the approximate distance to the subject.
1 Press the PUSH button (unlock focus mode ring button) on the
focus mode ring and turn the ring toward FULL MF.
