Using the Built-in Video Light E The built-in video light allows you to make clear, colorful recordings of poorly lit scenes. You can even record in complete darkness. The recommended distance between the subject and camcorder is about 5 feet (2 m). 1. Turn the program selector to any of the camera modes except Spotlight mode. 2. Slide the light switch to the x ON position to turn on the video light. • The light will only turn on in camera mode. • When inserting or ejecting a cassette the video light turns off automatically. 3. Make your recording. 4. When you have finished using the light, slide the switch back to the OFF position. Notes: • Continuous recording time is reduced with continued use of the video light. For longer recordings you may prefer to use a power adapter. • The light becomes hot during use - keep it away from plastic or flammable materials, and do not touch it. • Do not knock the light, especially during use. • Do not use the wide-converter lens or the tele-converter lens with the video light. • When the bulb has reached the end of its life, contact your nearest Canon Service Center. Caution: • Do not touch the bulb protector during and after use of the video light. It and surrounding areas become hot. DANGER • Not to be handled by children. • Emits intense heat and light. • Use with caution to reduce the risk of fire or injury. • Keep a safe distance between the Video Light and human or material subjects when using and until cool. • Turn light off when not in use. 51 Advanced Functions
