Auto Focus
During auto focus the camcorder will
focus automatically on the object located
in the center area of the viewfinder.
• Place the scene select AE dial in AUTO
to turn on the auto focus feature.
Note: The low-contrast indicator (
)
in the viewfinder indicates the auto-focus
system may not operate correctly due to low
illumination, low or no contrast, repeated
patterns, or two subjects at different
distances overlapping.
Caution: During recording pauses,
light entering the camcorder will
operate the auto-focus feature and
consume battery power.
