Poor Conditions for Auto Focusing
{a] Insufficient light
[b] Too much bright light behind the subject
[c] Subjects with flat colors and less
contrast —wall, sky, etc.
{d] Finely detailed repetitive patterns
[ej Slant stripes
[f] When the distance between subjects at the
center is extreme (e.g. one subject is close,
the other is away)
[gl Subjects beyond screens, nets, etc. or when
another subject passes across the camera
Other Uses of Manual Focusing
e When using special effects lenses or filters
e When shooting still subjects on a tripod
e To save battery wear
(When the FOCUS switch is set to AUTO, the
auto focusing operates to move the focus ring
automatically even in recording pause mode.
This causes the battery to wear continuously.)
For focusing in close-up shooting, see page

TCL Auto Focusing System
The TCL (Through Camera Lens) auto focusing system
incorporated in this unit utilizes high-precision sensors to
determine picture contrast at the center of the viewfinder
screen (the portion marked with the blue bar in the
illustration) and adjust focus accordingly for automatic,
highly accurate focusing. (H-3]
Note
It may take several seconds to get focus when the camera is
rapidly panned from a near subject to a distant subject with
less contrast.
