The Auto Focus/Manual Focus function works in both Camera and
M.Cam modes.

In most situations, it is better to use the automatic focus feature, as it
enables you to concentrate on the creative side of your recording.
✤
Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that make
automatic focusing difficult and/or unreliable.

Manual Focus can be set in the Quick Menu.

If you are inexperienced in the use of Camcorders,
we recommend that you make use of Auto Focus.
