Using a Memory Card
E
Depending on the number of images on the memory card (Windows: more than
1800 images; Macintosh: more than 1000 images), you may not be able to
download images to a computer. In such case, use a PC card reader.
Connection to a PictBridge compliant printer will not work when the memory
card contains more than 1800 images. For best performance, we recommend
to keep the number of images on the memory card less than 100.
When the subject is too bright, the ND filter turns on automatically (“ND”
appears on the screen). If it is still too bright, “OVEREXP” starts flashing. In
such case, use the optional FS-34U ND filter. If you wish to turn off the ND filter:
Open the menu and select [CAMERA SETUP]. Select [ND], set it to [OFF] and
close the menu.
When the Focus-Priority mode is set to [ON]:
When you press the PHOTO button fully before and focusing frame turn
green, it may take up to 2* seconds until focus is adjusted and the still image
can be recorded to the memory card.
* Up to 4 seconds in the Low Light and the night modes.
If the subject is not suitable for autofocus, the focusing frame turns yellow and
locks the focus. Adjust the focus manually with the SET dial.
When the Focus-Priority mode is set to [OFF]:
No focusing frame appears.
In step 2, turns green, and focus and exposure are locked.
The camcorder shuts off when you do not operate it for 5 minutes to save
power. “ AUTO POWER OFF” appears 20 seconds before shutoff. To
continue recording, turn the POWER switch to OFF and then back to CAMERA.
