Recording
Notes
Turn the zoom ring C at a moderate speed. If you turn
it too fast, the zoom speed may lag behind the zoom
ring rotation speed, or the operation sound of the zoom
may also be recorded.
Adjusting the focus manually
You can adjust the focus manually for different
recording conditions.
Use this function in the following cases.
—To record a subject behind a window
covered with raindrops.
—To record horizontal stripes.
—To record a subject with little contrast
between the subject and its background.
—When you want to focus on a subject in the
background.

tripod.
1 During recording or standby, set the
FOCUS switch B to MAN.
The focus mode indication changes to “MF.”

focus.
For focusing manually
It is easier to focus on the subject when you use
the zoom function. Move the power zoom lever
towards T (telephoto) and adjust the focus, then,
towards W (wide angle) to adjust the zoom for
recording.
When you want to record a close-up image of a
subject, move the power zoom lever towards W
(wide angle) to fully magnify the image, then
adjust the focus.
To restore automatic adjustment
Set the FOCUS switch B to AUTO.
The focus mode indication changes to “AF” and
the automatic focus adjustment is restored.
To use automatic focus temporarily

Record the subject while pressing and holding the
PUSH AUTO button C.
If you release the button, the setting returns to
manual focusing.
Use this function to shift the focus on one subject
to another. The scenes will shift smoothly.
The focal distance information (for when it is
dark and hard to adjust the focus) appears for
about 3 seconds in the following cases. (It will
not be displayed correctly if you are using a
conversion lens (sold separately)).

is displayed on the screen
To use the expanded focus (Expanded focus)
In the default setting, “Focus Magnifier” is
assigned to the ASSIGN 7 button (page 35).
