Subject size underwater

Since the refractive index underwater is higher than that in air, objects appear 1/4
closer, and therefore larger. This phenomenon affects the lens on the camcorder as well
as human the eye. Using the supplied wide-conversion lens is recommended.

Operate the camera with slow and stable motions

When recording, keep your body stable.
An unstable shot will be magnified on the TV screen.
Move the camcorder as slowly as possible. Since most of the objects underwater move,
you can record a good shot without moving the camcorder too much.

Note on recording underwater

Be sure to follow the safety rules for diving, such as diving period and depth.
