  4. Aim the camera at the desired subject and adjust the zoom accordingly.
  5. Press the <PHOTO> button halfway.
    - Once the focus is automatically adjusted, the camcorder will beep, the o mark will turn green and one or more green AF frames appear.
    - When you press the <PHOTO> button on the wireless controller, the still image is recorded immediately.
  6. Press the <PHOTO> button fully.
    - The o mark and the AF frame(s) disappear and you hear a shutter sound.

About the focusing frame:

  • This camcorder uses the 9-point artificial intelligence autofocus (9-point AiAF) that will automatically select the best focusing frames out of nine available, allowing you to focus on subjects even if they are not in the center of the picture.

  • If the subject is not suitable for autofocus, o turns yellow. Keep the <PHOTO> button pressed halfway and adjust the focus manually with the joystick (,).

  • In step 5 above, the image may appear out of focus for a moment while the camcorder is focusing.

  • In order to save power when the camcorder is powered by a battery pack, the camcorder will automatically shut off if left without any operations for 5 minutes. "AUTO POWER OFF" appears 30 seconds before shutoff. To continue recording, turn the power switch to <OFF> and then back to <CAMERA>.
