Tips for Making Better Videos

Holding the Camcorder
E
For maximum stability, grip the camcorder in your right hand and keep your right
elbow pressed against your body. If necessary, support the camcorder with your left
hand. Be careful that your fingers do not touch the microphone or lens.
For More Stability
Lean against a wall
Lie on your elbow
Lighting
When recording outdoors, we recommend
recording with the sun at your back.
❍ When using a tripod, do not leave the viewfinder exposed to direct sunlight as
it may melt (due to concentration of the light by the lens).
❍ Do not use tripods with fastening screws longer than 0.2 inch (5.5 mm) as it
may damage the camcorder.
