" Notes
• The minimum possible distance between
camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp
focus is about 1 cm (about 13/32 in.) for wide
angle and about 80 cm (about 2 5/8 feet) for
telephoto.
.~.
Tips
• It is easier to focus on the subject by moving the
power zoom lever towards T (telephoto) to
adjust the focus, then towards W (wide angle) to
adjust the zoom for recording. When you want
to record a subject at close range, move the
power zoom lever to W (wide angle), then
adjust the focus.
• The focal distance information (distance at
which the subject is focused on, if it is dark and
focus adjustment is difficult) appears for a few
seconds in the following cases (This
information will not display correctly if an
optional conversion lens is being used).
- When the focus mode is switched from
automatic to manual
- When you set focus manually

" Notes
• If you set [SPOT FOCUS], [FOCUS] is
automatically set to [MANUAL].
TELE MACRO
~CJj
This is useful to shoot small subjects, such
as flowers or insects. You can blur out
backgrounds and the subject stands out
clearer.
When you set [TELE MACRO] to [ON]
(TI),
the zoom (p. 31) moves to the top of
the T (telephoto) side automatically and
allows recording subjects at a close distance
down to about 57 cm (22 II2 in.).
To cancel, touch [OFF], or zoom to wide-
angle (W side).
" Notes
• When recording a distant subject, focusing may
be difficult and can take some time.
• Adjust the focus manually ([FOCUS], p. 80)
when it is hard to focus automatically.
