ACTIVE SCREEN   
The camcorder automatically brightens the backlight of the LCD monitor when you are 
recording a bright subject outdoors, so that the LCD screen is easy to see. 
NOTES: 
• When you record a bright subject outdoors, the camcorder operating time will be less than 
when recording indoors. 
• Even if you record outdoors, the LCD monitor backlight may not brighten, if you are aiming at 
a dark subject.
