Tips for Making Better Videos
Holding the Camcorder
For maximum stability, grip the camcorder in your right hand and keep
your right elbow pressed against your body. If necessary, support the
camcorder with your left hand. Be careful that your fingers do not
touch the microphone or lens.
For More Stability
Lighting
When recording outdoors, we
recommend recording with the sun
at your back.
❍ When using a tripod, do not leave the viewfinder exposed to direct sunlight as
it may melt (due to concentration of the light by the lens).
❍ Do not use tripods with fastening screws longer than
5.5 mm as it may damage the camcorder.
