The optimum compensation data for the exclusive lenses are stored in File 01 and File 02, respectively, at the factory and are automatically retrieved when the corresponding lenses are mounted. When using other lenses than the exclusive lenses, you can store the compensation data in Files U1 to U4 with the LENS menu. Storing compensation data for a nonexclusive lens The same compensation data as those in the file for the supplied standard lens (01: VCL-614B2X) are stored in all the user-definable files U1 to U4. To use a non-exclusive lens, store the compensation data in a file by proceeding as follows: 1 Mount a lens for which you wish to store the compensation data in a file. 2 Set the camcorder to Camera mode by setting the power switch to the CAMERA position. 3 Adjust the white balance. 4 Press the MENU button to set the camcorder to Menu mode and select the LENS menu with . 5 Select "Flare" and set the flare compensation values for R, G, and B.
