Preparing the Camcorder

Adjusting the Viewfinder (Diopter Adjustment)
E
1. Turn on the camcorder and keep the
LCD panel closed.
2. Extend the viewfinder and move it
upward.
3. Adjust the diopter adjustment lever.
Do not leave the viewfinder exposed to direct sunlight as it may melt (due to
concentration of light by the lens). Adjust the angle of the viewfinder to prevent
sunlight from entering.
Attaching the Lens Hood
Attach the lens hood to shade the lens from stray light and to protect the lens.
1. Place the lens hood on the front of
the lens.
Make sure that the lens hood is aligned with
the thread.
2. Screw the lens hood clockwise on the
lens.
Attaching the Lens Cap
1. Attach the cord to the lens cap.
2. Pass the grip belt through the loop
on the cord.
Press the buttons on the lens cap when
attaching/removing it. Hook the lens cap on
the grip belt while you are recording, and
place it over the lens when you have finished.
