• The images of the viewfinder and the 

LCD screen used in this Handbook for 
illustration purposes are captured using a 
digital still camera, and therefore may 
appear different.

• In this Handbook, the hard disk of your 

camcorder and “Memory Stick PRO Duo” 
are called “media.”

• Design and specifications of your 

camcorder and accessories are subject to 
change without notice.

Your camcorder is equipped with a Carl 
Zeiss lens, which was developed jointly by 
Carl Zeiss, in Germany, and Sony 
Corporation, and produces superior images. 
It adopts the MTF measurement system for 
video cameras and offers a quality typical 
of a Carl Zeiss lens. Also, the lens for your 
camcorder is T -coated to suppress 
unwanted reflections and faithfully 
reproduce colors.
MTF= Modulation Transfer Function. The 
number value indicates the amount of light 
from a subject coming into the lens.
