MF/AF (Manual Focus/Auto Focus)

The MF/AF function works only in CAMERA mode.
In most situations, it is better to use the Automatic Focus feature, as it enables you to concentrate on the creative
side of your shooting.
Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that make automatic focusing inadequate.
Auto Focusing
The AF (Auto Focus) mode is set automatically when you switch on the Power switch.
If you are inexperienced with camcorders, we recommend that you use the Auto Focus mode.
Manual Focusing
In the following situations, you should obtain better results by adjusting
the focus manually.
a. Apicture containing several objects, some close to the camcorder,
others further away.
b. Aperson enveloped in fog or surrounded by snow.
c. Very shiny or glossy surfaces like a car.
d. People or objects moving constantly or quickly like an athlete or crowd.
