Using the LCD Screen
1. Push the OPEN button at the LCD
panel and open the LCD panel.
The LCD screen switches on and the
viewfinder switches off.
2. Rotate the LCD panel and choose the
angle of the screen.
You can rotate the LCD panel so that the
screen faces in the same direction as the lens
( 33), or push it flat against the camcorder with the screen facing outward.
3. Close the LCD panel after use.
• Close the LCD panel firmly until it clicks.
• The LCD screen switches off and the
viewfinder switches on.
❍ Make sure to open the LCD panel at 90 degrees before rotating it.
❍ Rotate the LCD panel in the vertical position before closing the LCD panel.
❍ When recording outdoors or through a window, do not leave the LCD screen,
viewfinder or lens exposed to direct sunlight as it may cause damage.
❍ Do not hold the camcorder by the LCD panel or the viewfinder.
❍ Bright light or reflected light may cause a vertical light bar to appear on the
screen. This is not a malfunction.
❍ Bright light may make it difficult to use the LCD screen. In such case, use the
viewfinder instead.
