Peaking
When you press the PEAKING button, the
peaking function is activated. This function
emphasizes the contours of the images on the
LCD monitor/EVF screen, making manual
focusing easier.
This function does not affect recording signals.
The emphasis level and color of the contours can
be set with “Peaking” (page 103) of the LCD/VF
SET menu.
Slide the focus ring forward (toward the lens
hood) and set the FOCUS switch to MANU to set
the camcorder to MF mode. In this mode, you can
activate Auto Focus only when required.
Adjusting the focus with the focus ring
Rotate the focus ring for the best focus while
observing the picture on the LCD monitor/EVF
screen.
The range index of the ring is invalid in MF
mode.
One-Push (Momentary) Auto Focusing
Push the PUSH AF button. Auto focusing
momentarily activates (One-Push Auto
Focusing).
One-Push Auto Focusing is terminated when the
subject comes in focus.
MF Assist function
When you stop rotating the iris ring with the MF
Assist function active, auto focusing starts,
performing fine focus adjustment for the subject
in the center of the screen. When the fine
adjustment is completed, automatic focusing with
the MF Assist function is terminated.
Activating the MF Assist function using the
CAMERA SET menu
Set “MF Assist” (page 98) of the CAMERA SET
menu to “On.”
