Recording Tips
•
Try to make sure indoor scenes are
well-lit. This improves picture
quality and color reproduction.
•
Do not move the camcorder
rapidly from side-to-side while
recording. A steady, gradual
“pan” avoids blurring and “jitter”.
•
Use the viewfinder or LCD
monitor to make sure the
camcorder is level while recording
so that your scene isn’t “tilted.”
•
Do not bump or tap the
camcorder’s microphone while
recording because this sound will
be recorded.
•
Include close-ups of individuals
when taping family outings or
group functions.
•
Fading in and out of scenes makes
your videos appear more
professional.
•
Learn to use the special
production effects available with
your camcorder to add variety to
your recordings.
•
Be aware of video and audio
backgrounds. Background details
barely noticed while you are
taping may show up as visual
“clutter” on your recording.
Background noises (especially TV
sets, radios, household appliances,
traffic sounds, etc.) might detract
from the sound you want to
record.
•
Avoid long “still” shots of
landmarks and scenic attractions.
Recordings are more interesting if
they include people and details.
“Local color” gives travel videos
lasting appeal. Consider recording
a familiar or landmark scene from
an unfamiliar vantage point.
Traveling Tips
•
Write down your camcorder’s
serial number and keep it separate
from the camcorder when
traveling. If your camcorder is
lost or stolen, you will be able to
identify it.
•
Use extra care to avoid damage to
your camcorder and accessories
when operating them at a beach or
pool. Spray, sand, and dust should
be avoided. If your lens has been
exposed to the elements, clean it
only with proper lens cleaning
supplies.
•
Make sure you have any plug
adapters that you might need
before taking your camcorder to
other countries. Consult your
dealer for advice.
•
Carry your camcorder in a
carrying case when traveling. See
the next page for a case designed
especially for this camcorder. An
ordinary suitcase or carry bag does
not offer the protection your
camcorder needs. Treat your
camcorder as carry-on luggage to
protect it from rough handling.
