adjust the brightness of the LCD screen with the 6 8 [LCD Bright-
ness] setting.
• When taking photos:
- If the subject is not suitable for autofocus, the onscreen icon h turns
yellow. Set the camcorder to mode and adjust the focus

- When the subject is too bright, [Overexp.] will flash on the screen. In
such case, use the optional FS-H37U ND filter.
• Under certain conditions, the Smart AUTO icon that appears on the
screen may not match the actual scene. Especially when shooting
against orange or blue backgrounds, the Sunset or one of the Blue
