Tips for focusing manually
• It is easier to focus on the subject when you use the 
zoom function. Move the power zoom lever towards 
T (telephoto) to adjust the focus, and then, towards 
W (wide angle) to adjust the zoom for recording.
• When you want to record a close-up image of a 
subject, move the power zoom lever towards W 
(wide angle) to fully magnify the image, then adjust 
the focus.
