/ Camera Setup 3
[Focus Assist Functions]: When the focus assist functions are activated,
the image at the center of the screen is magnified to help you focus man-
ually ( 71).
When face detection is activated, instead of the center of the picture,
the camcorder will magnify the face of the person identified as the main
subject.
Using the focus assist functions will not affect the recordings. They will
be cancelled automatically after 4 seconds or when you start recording.
[Assist Functions]: The assist functions serve as a reference to help you
achieve correct focus and exposure.
[Zebra]: Overexposed areas in the picture are identified with a zebra pat-
tern. With [ Zebra (100%)] only areas that will lose detail in the high-
light areas will be identified, while [ Zebra (70%)] will identify also
areas that are dangerously close to losing detail.
[ Peaking]: The outlines of the subject are emphasized and shown in
color to make it easier to verify that the subject is in focus.
[ B&W and Peaking]: In addition to activating the peaking function, the
picture will be shown in black and white to create an even greater con-
trast.
The assist functions will not affect your recordings.
