Notes
• The minimum possible distance between
camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp
focus is about 1 cm (about 13/32 in.) for wide
angle and about 80 cm (about 2 5/8 feet) for
telephoto.

Tips
• It is easier to focus on the subject by moving the
power zoom lever towards T (telephoto) to
adjust the focus, then towards W (wide angle) to
adjust the zoom for recording. When you want
to record a subject at close range, move the
power zoom lever to W (wide angle), then
adjust the focus.
• The focal distance information (distance at
which the subject is focused on, if it is dark and
focus adjustment is difficult) appears for a few
seconds in the following cases (This
information will not display correctly if an
optional conversion lens is being used).
– when the focus mode is switched from
automatic to manual
– when you set focus manually
