appears when the focus cannot be adjusted

any closer, and

appears when the focus cannot be adjusted farther away.

Note

The minimum possible distance between this product and subject while maintaining sharp focus is about 1 cm (about

13/32 in.) for wide angle and about 80 cm (about 31 1/2 in.) for telephoto.

Hint

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.

This product displays the focal distance information for a few seconds when [Focus] is set to [Manual] or when you

set the focus manually. You can use this information as a guide when the subject is dark and focus adjustment is

difficult.

The focal distance information will not appear correctly if a conversion lens (sold separately) is being used.
