4. The small button marked with a red “R” is the record start/stop button. The button marked
ON will toggle the camera between standby and full power modes. Hold the button in for 2
seconds and release to put the camera into standby mode. To power the camera up from
standby mode, simply press the ON button (most camcorders will go into auto standby after
a few minutes in record pause mode). Pressing the “ON” button will bring the camcorder
back to full operating mode whether you put it into standby manually or if it happens
automatically.
5. You can also control the focus of your lens manually using the Stealth-LX. With most
camcorders, you can toggle between Auto and Manual focus with the autofocus button *
(marked “A”). Once you are in Manual Focus mode, you can use the switch on the controller
marked “Focus” to precisely adjust the focal plane. Pressing the up arrow (
∧) will bring the
focal plane closer while pressing the down arrow (
∨) will move the focal plane farther away.
6. You also have access to two other control functions, data and edit search. The data button
toggles the on-screen data (tape time, settings, etc.) on and off. Edit search (ff/rew) allows
you to review the recording on your tape.
7. Finally, the LED indicator light located above the zoom throttle will turn red (or blink) to
indicate a variety of camcorder functions such as record, tape out, low battery, etc. (the
pattern will vary slightly between different camcorders, but will remain consistent when used
with the same camcorder). You are ready to begin using the StealthZoom. Enjoy! (When
not in use, disconnect the StealthZoom.)
