Operating Modes:
Recording: In recording mode, the camcorder's operating is determined by the position of the
mode switch located on the top right of the camera.
AUTO: Let the camcorder take care of all the settings while you
concentrate on recording. This operating mode is suitable if you just
prefer not to bother with detailed camcorder settings.
*Remember, in
AUTO, the camcorder is going to want to focus on that tree limb or
other obstacle in front of your animal, instead of focusing on that
buck or etc. unless you have touch and track activated. The BEST mode
is always Manual
Only the following functions are available in AUTO mode:
• Zoom
• Quick Start
• Video Snapshot
• Advanced image stabilization modes to shoot video while walking or to stabilize the shot while
zooming in on faraway subjects (telephoto)
• Face detection to get beautiful shots of people every time, tracking the subject even if the
person moves.
• Touch & Track to track other moving subjects, keeping them in focus and using the best
settings to record them.
• Story Creator to transform your movies into compelling video stories by following simple scrips
for various scenarios.
• Decorations to add graphical elements using stamps, drawings, image mix and more.
M : M stands for Manual, where you have full access to menus, settings and advanced functions.
CINEMA: Give your recordings a cinematic look and use cinema-look filters to create unique
movies.
Playback: Press the camera/play button to switch the camcorder
between camera(recording) mode and playback mode. You can press
the button when the camera is turned off to turn it on directly in
playback mode.
Using the Menus:
Many of the camcorder's functions can be adjusted from the FUNC. panel and the setup menus.
