NOTES
•
About the LCD and viewfinder screens:
The screens are produced using extremely high-precision
manufacturing techniques, with more than 99.99% of the pixels operating to specification. Less
than 0.01% of the pixels may occasionally misfire or appear as black, red, blue or green dots. This
has no effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
LCD Backlight
When recording in bright places it may be difficult to use the LCD screen. Turn on the LCD backlight to
make it brighter.
With the camcorder on, hold
h
pressed down for more
than 2 seconds.
• Repeat this action to switch the LCD backlight between off
(normal) and on (bright).
