Auto Focus
The camcorder’s Full Range AF system offers
continuous shooting ability from close-up (as close as
approx. 5 cm to the subject) to infinity.
However, correct focus may not be obtainable in the
situations listed below (in these cases use manual
focusing):
When two subjects overlap in the same scene.
When illumination is low.*
When the subject has no contrast (difference in
brightness and darkness), such as a flat, one-colour
wall, or a clear, blue sky.*
When a dark object is barely visible in the viewfinder.*
When the scene contains minute patterns or identical
patterns that are regularly repeated.
When the scene is affected by sunbeams or light
reflecting off the surface of a body of water.
When shooting a scene with a high-contrast back-
ground.

NOTES:
If the lens is smeared or blurred, accurate focusing is not
possible. Keep the lens clean, wiping with a piece of soft
cloth if it gets dirty. When condensation occurs, wipe with
a soft cloth or wait for it to dry naturally.
When shooting a subject close to the lens, zoom out first
(
pg. 13). If zoomed-in in the auto focus mode, the

distance between the camcorder and the subject. This will
not occur when “TELE MACRO” (
pg. 33) is activated.
