Setting the Autofocus Mode
You can select how fast the camcorder focuses using autofocus.
1 Open the AF mode’s [Speed] submenu.
[~ Camera Setup] > [AF Mode] > [Speed]
2 Select the desired option and then press SET.
Options
[High]: Sets the autofocus mode to Instant AF. The focus is adjusted at
the highest speed. This mode is useful even when recording in
very bright or low-light surroundings. This mode uses both the
TTL system and external sensor for focusing.
[Medium]: Sets the autofocus mode to Medium AF. The camcorder
focuses more smoothly on the subject than when using the
[High] setting.
[Normal]: Sets the autofocus mode to Normal AF. The autofocus
adjustment is made at a stable speed.
NOTES
• When recording in bright surroundings, the camcorder closes down the aperture. This may cause the picture
to appear blurred and is more noticeable toward the wide-angle end of the zoom range. In such case, set
[~ Camera Setup] > [ND Filter] to [Automatic].
•When [~ Camera Setup] > [Conversion Lens] is set to a setting other than [Off] and when the camcorder is
in infrared mode, the [High] and [Medium] settings are not available. Also, Push AF will operate at Normal AF
speed.
• Autofocus takes longer to focus when the frame rate is set to 29.97P or 23.98P than when it is set to 59.94i.
During slow & fast motion recording mode, the same is true for all shooting frame rates other than 60.
• When recording under dark conditions, the focusing range narrows and the picture may appear blurred.
• Autofocus (including Push AF) may not work well on the following subjects or in the following cases. In such
case, focus manually.
- Reflective surfaces
- Subjects with low contrast or without vertical lines
- Fast moving subjects
- Through dirty or wet windows
-Night scenes
