Setting the Screen to Black & White

them to black & white. Even when the screen is black & white, onscreen

NOTES
• If you set an assignable button to [LCD/VF B&W] (A 87), you can press the button to turn the black & white
display on and off.
• About the LCD and viewfinder screens: The screens are produced using extremely high-precision
manufacturing techniques, with more than 99.99% of the pixels operating to specification. Less than 0.01% of
the pixels may occasionally misfire or appear as black, red, blue or green dots. This has no effect on the
recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
Using a Tripod
The camcorder is shipped with the TB-1 Tripod Base for tripods with 0.95 cm (3/8 in.)
screws. You can mount the camcorder on a tripod but do not use tripods with mounting
screws longer than 5.5 mm (0.2 in.) as this may cause damage to the camcorder.
Using a Tripod with 0.64 cm (1/4 in.) Mounting
Screws
To use a tripod with 0.64 cm (1/4 in.) mounting screws, first
attach the supplied tripod adapter base to the camcorder and
then attach the tripod to the adapter base.
1 Remove the original TB-1 Tripod Base from the camcorder.
• Remove the 4 screws and then remove the base.
2 Attach the supplied tripod adapter base for 0.64 cm (1/4 in.)
tripods.
• Firmly screw in the 4 screws.
3 Attach the tripod.

Removing and Attaching the Grip Unit
The grip unit comes originally attached to the camcorder. You can remove it and replace it with the thumb rest
should the minimal configuration be necessary. Although you will not be able to use the joystick, you can set the
joystick's functions (up/down/left/right/SET) to assignable buttons (A 87) to be able to change settings that
require the joystick*. Also, the control dial (A 60, 61) and MAGN. button/Assignable button 7 (A 87) cannot
be used to operate the camcorder.
* Except during photo playback. Functions that require the joystick include all settings in the menus (A 27, 129), white balance,
ISO speed/gain and shutter speed (A 53), custom picture settings (A 90), etc.
