When recording under bright conditions, the camcorder closes down the aperture. When the
aperture value used is too large, the picture may appear blurred. Turn the built-in ND filter on/off
according to the screen display ( 41).
When you attach the optional Wide Converter to the camcorder, set the camcorder to a recording
mode other than Easy Recording and set the autofocus mode to Normal AF. Also, avoid using
the Push AF function.
In 30F and 24F mode, autofocus takes longer than in 60i mode.
When recording under dark conditions, the focusing range narrows and the picture may appear
blurred.
Autofocus may not work well on the following subjects. In that case, focus manually.
- Reflective surfaces
- Subjects with low contrast or without vertical lines
- Fast moving subjects
- Through dirty or wet windows
- Night scenes
Manual focus
1. Set the focus mode switch to M.
“MF” appears.
2. Zoom in to telephoto.
3. Turn the focus ring to adjust the focus.
With the customized functions ( 97) you can
change the direction and response sensitivity of
adjustment when the focus ring is used.
4. Operate the zoom to reframe the subject.
If you focus manually and then leave the camcorder
with the power turned on, the focus on the subject
may be lost after a while. This possible slight shift in
focus is a result of the internal temperature rising in
the camcorder and lens. Check the focus before
resuming shooting.
Manual focus cannot be selected in Easy Recording mode. Even if you set the focus mode
switch to M, the autofocus (Instant AF) will still be activated.
The focusing distance to the subject will be displayed for approx. 3 seconds when you switch
from autofocus to manual focus or when you operate the focus ring in manual focus mode. It will
also be displayed with the focus preset. With the custom function [OBJ DST UNIT] ( 97) you can
change the units for the distance display (meters or feet) and with the custom display ( 103) you
can select when to display this information (always, never, or only upon the operation of the focus
ring).
- Use the focusing distance display as an estimate; when the distance reading is not considered
very precise it will be displayed in gray. : Infinity focus -: Over infinity focus.
- The correct distance will not be displayed when the optional Wide Converter is attached.
You can simultaneously zoom and focus manually. If the camcorder is in AF mode, the autofocus
will be reactivated when you finish the operation.
