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
