✤ The MF/AF function works in CAMERA mode only.
✤ In most situations, it is better to use the Automatic Focus feature, as it enables you to concentrate on the creative
side of your shooting.
✤ Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that make automatic focusing inadequate.
Auto Focusing
✤ The AF (Auto Focus) mode is set automatically when you switch on the Power switch.
✤ If you are inexperienced with camcorders, we recommend that you use the Auto Focus mode.
Manual Focusing
✤ In the following situations, you should obtain better results by
adjusting the focus manually.
a. A picture containing several objects, some close to the camcorder,
others further away.
b. A person enveloped in fog or surrounded by snow.
c. Very shiny or glossy surfaces like a car.
d. People or objects moving constantly or quickly like an athlete or crowd.
1. Set the power switch to CAMERA mode.
2. Press the MF button.
The MF symbol will appear in the viewfinder.
