Note
:
•
Use the viewfinder to check the image to be recorded.
•
The LCD monitor light allows you to record a subject
up to 1 m even in a dark place.
•
An after-image will appear when filming a moving
subject or if camera shake occurs (it is recommended
that you use a tripod).
•
If a subject cannot be focused properly, manually
adjust the focus (see page 52).
