Adjusting the Focus

NOTES

• If the focus mode switch on the EF lens is set to MF, you will not be able control the focus through remote

operation. Depending on the lens used, remote operation may not work correctly.

• If you operate the zoom after focusing, the focus on the subject may be lost.

• If you focus manually and then leave the camcorder with the power turned on, the focus on the subject may

be lost after a while. This possible slight shift in focus is a result of the internal temperature rising in the
camcorder and lens. Check the focus before resuming shooting.

• While the camcorder is focusing, do not touch the end of the lens or focus ring while they are moving.

• When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the camcorder, you can adjust the focus with

the remote controller’s FOCUS dial. Turn the dial right to focus farther and left to focus nearer.

Using the Focus Assistance Functions

In order to focus more accurately, you can use two focus assistance functions – peaking, which creates a clearer
contrast by emphasizing the outlines of the subject, and magnification, which enlarges the image on the screen.
You can use both functions simultaneously for greater effect.
You can also use the [w Other Functions] > [Custom Function] > [F. Assist. B&W] setting (A 123) to switch
the screen to black & white while using the focus assistance functions.
