Adjusting the Focus
Adjusting the Focus
The camcorder offers three ways to focus.
Manual focus: Turn the focus ring on the attached lens to adjust the focus. The camcorder offers several focus
assistance functions to help you focus more accurately when using the manual focus.
One-shot AF: With the lens's focus mode switch set to AF, press and hold the ONE-SHOT AF button to let the
camcorder focus automatically on the subject at the center of the screen.
Continuous AF*: Set the lens's focus mode switch to AF to have the camcorder continuously focus on the
subject.
* Only when an EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM or EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens is attached to the camcorder.
Manual Focus
Turn the focus ring to adjust the focus.
NOTES
• In most cases, you can use the focus ring on the lens to adjust the focus even when the focus mode switch is
set to AF (autofocus). However, depending on the lens, the focus ring may be disabled in AF mode. In such
case, set the focus mode switch to MF.
• If you operate the zoom after focusing manually, the focus on the subject may be lost.
• When adjusting the focus, be careful not to touch the front of the lens or moving parts on the lens except for
the focus ring.
• 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.
One-Shot AF
1 Set the focus mode switch on the lens to AF in advance.
• Refer to the instruction manual of the lens used.
• [AF] will appear on the left of the screen.
2 Press and hold the ONE-SHOT AF button.
• The AF frame will appear at the center of the screen and the
camcorder will focus automatically. When correct focus has been
achieved, the AF frame turns green.
• If the camcorder cannot focus automatically, the AF frame will turn
red.
• The AF frame will disappear when you release the ONE-SHOT AF
button.
