Useful Features Camera Recording Useful Features Auto Focus Using the Remote Control The camcorder is preset to Auto Focus mode, which is designed to focus on most types of subjects. In Auto Focus mode, the camcorder automatically focuses on whatever is in the center of the scene. Always keep the subject in the center of the scene. Notes: • If no subject is in the center of the scene, the focus area will expand and the subject nearest the center will be focused on. • If no subject is displayed, the camcorder will automatically zoom out until a subject comes into the frame. • Auto Focus may not work in the situations described on page 47. In these situations, use the manual focus function. Use the supplied remote control to operate the camcorder from a distance, such as when you want to record yourself in a scene, or when the camcorder is connected to a TV for use as a VCR. Installing the Batteries in the Remote Control 1 Open the battery compartment cover. 2 Insert the two supplied AA (R6 or UM/ SUM-3) batteries with the battery poles positioned as indicated. 1 2 Macro Shots This camcorder lets you shoot close-up images of small objects such as flowers and insects, or make title frames for your videos. When you want to record a magnified image of a subject which is within approximately 6 feet (1.8 m) of the camcorder, do not zoom in on it. Instead, zoom out all the way by pushing the Power Zoom control to the W side, and then move the camcorder closer to the subject until you obtain the desired angle of view. The camcorder will automatically focus on the subject when the lens is set for the widest angle. 3 Replace the cover. Caution: • Do not use old and new batteries together or batteries of different brands together. Tripod Power Zoom control Notes: • When you are recording a macro shot, be sure that the subject receives sufficient illumination. • It is recommended that you use a tripod for recording macro shots, to prevent image shaking.
