Menu Options [Digital Zoom]: Determines the operation of the digital zoom. • When you zoom, once you exceed the optical zoom range, the camcorder will automatically switch to digital zoom. • With the digital zoom the image is digitally processed, so the image resolution will deteriorate the more you zoom in. • Digital zoom is not available in mode or when > [v Camera Setup] > [Conversion Lens] is set to [¿ WA-H58]. 98 [Focus Preset Speed]: Determines the speed at which the focus changes to the preset position. [Auto Backlight Correction]: When set to [i On], the camcorder will automatically detect and compensate the exposure for backlit subjects. This is useful in situations in which the subject is not constantly backlit. • Automatic backlight correction is not available in the following cases: - When the camcorder is in mode. - When the shooting mode is n, [Q Night Scene], [K Snow], [L Beach], [M Sunset], [S Spotlight] or [T Fireworks]. [Auto Slow Shutter]: The camcorder automatically uses slow shutter speeds to obtain brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting. • When this setting is set to [i On], the minimum shutter speed used is: 1/30 (59.94P), 1/15 (29.97P) or 1/12 (23.98P). • The auto slow shutter is available only during [' Programmed AE]. mode or when the shooting mode is set to • If a trailing afterimage appears, set the slow shutter to [j Off]. • We recommend stabilizing the camcorder, for example, by mounting it on a tripod. • The camcorder will not use auto slow shutter when the AGC limit is set. [Flicker Reduction]: When set to [k Automatic], the camcorder will automatically detect and reduce flicker. • When recording under light sources such as fluorescent, mercury or halogen lamps, the screen may flicker depending on the shutter speed. You may be able to avoid flicker by setting the shutter speed mode to a value matching the frequency of the local electrical system: 1/100 for 50 Hz systems, 1/60 for 60 Hz systems. [Conversion Lens]: When you attach to the camcorder the optional TL-H58 Tele-converter or WA-H58 Wide Attachment, set the appropriate conversion lens setting. The camcorder will then optimize the image stabilization and adjust the minimum object distance. The minimum object distance throughout the entire zoom range will be 130 cm (4 ft. 3 in.) for the tele-converter and about 60 cm (2 ft.) for the wide attachment. When you select [¿ WA-H58] and you zoom in, the zoom position marker will stop before reaching the end of the zoom bar. • The tele-converter increases the focal length by a factor of approximately 1.5 while the wide attachment decreases it by a factor of approximately 0.75. • When you select a setting other than [j Off], the AF mode is automatically set to [@ Normal AF]. • The approximate focusing distance displayed on the screen will change depending on the setting. If you are not using an optional conversion lens, select [j Off].
