Using the Focal Length Guide
Using the Focal Length Guide The focal length guide aids you when using two camcorders for 3D
recording. The guide appears as a numerical value and has a range of
195 steps. You can set the guide to 0 at any point in the zoom range to
help precisely calibrate both camcorders.
1 Set up two camcorders and align their picture angle at full
telephoto.
2 Open the [Focal Length Guide] submenu.
[l Camera Setup] [Zoom] [Focal Length Guide]
3 Select [Set To 0] and then press SET.
4 Press MENU.
• The focal length guide appears on the left side of the screen as
[z ±0]. To turn off the indicator, select [Off] instead.
5 Operate the zoom.
• If both camcorders are set so that the same value is displayed during
zoom, the focal length for both camcorders will remain almost the
same.
NOTES
• Although the focal length guide is an aid for 3D recording, make sure to
check the picture angle visually while recording.
• You can obtain more accurate results when you perform this procedure
at full telephoto.
• The same picture angle for both camcorders cannot be guaranteed.
