Samsung VP-D200(i) - Manual (Page 61)

✤ The MF/AF function works in CAM, M.REC mode only.
✤ In most situations, it is better to use the automatic focus
feature, as it enables you to concentrate on the creative side of your
recording.
✤ Manual focusing may be necessary under certain
conditions that make automatic
focusing difficult and/or unreliable.

✤ If you are inexperienced in the use of
camcorders, we recommend that you make
