Customized Functions

You can customize to your personal preferences many aspects of the operation of the camcorder, most
of them governing how the camcorder operates in
custom function files and save them on the camcorder or to a memory card. By just reading the custom
function file saved on the memory card with another XH G1S / XH A1S, you will instantly get a
camcorder configured to operate in the same familiar manner you prefer.
