Using the Video Light

To brighten the scene when natural lighting is too
dim, the camcorder uses a built-in video light.

You can turn on the video light at all times, set to
turn on automatically when the camcorder senses
additional light is needed, or turn off altogether.

Set the LIGHT switch as desired:

OFF

Turns off the light.

AUTO

Automatically allows the camcorder to
turn on the light when there is
insufficient lighting on the subject.

ON

Keeps the light on at all times as long
as the camcorder is turned on.

Video Light Details

Even if the battery icon (

) doesn’t blink due to

low battery charge, the camcorder may turn off
automatically when you turn on the video light, or if
the video light is turned on when you start a
recording.

When the LIGHT switch is set to AUTO :

The video light may keep turning on and off
depending on the lighting conditions. If this
happens, manually switch the light to ON or OFF
using the LIGHT switch.

If the Sports mode and shutter are turned on, the
video light is likely to stay on.

While in Twilight mode and Night mode, the
light won’t activate.

Notes:

The video light can only be used when
the camcorder is on.

Set the white balance to artificial light
(

) when using the video light to avoid

a “washed-out” look.

When not using the video light, turn it
off to save battery power.
