Adjusting the Focus
2 Press the PUSH button (unlock focus mode ring button) on the
focus mode ring and turn the ring toward AF/MF.
3 Turn the focus ring to adjust the focus.
NOTES
• When using full manual focus mode:
- If you turn the focus ring too quickly, the camcorder may not be able
to focus immediately. In such case, the camcorder will focus on the
subject after you finish turning the focus ring.
- When you switch the camcorder from manual focus mode to full
manual focus mode, the focus will automatically adjust to the
position that corresponds to the distance indicator on the focus ring.
- You cannot adjust the focus using a remote control connected to the
REMOTE terminal.
• You can use the focus ring to adjust the focus while you are operating
the zoom. When the camcorder is initially in autofocus mode, it will
return to autofocus mode after you manually adjust the focus.
• You can set the response sensitivity of the focus ring in manual focus
mode using the [J Other Functions] [Custom Function] [F. Ring
Control] setting (0 131).
• If you focus manually and then leave the camcorder with the power
turned on, the focus on the subject may be lost after a while. This
possible slight shift in focus is a result of the internal temperature rising
in the camcorder and lens. Check the focus before resuming shooting.
• When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the
camcorder, you can adjust the focus with the remote controller's
FOCUS dial. At default settings, turn the dial right to focus farther and
left to focus nearer.
