Selecting a Recording
Mode to Match the
Conditions
The camcorder automatically gauges
the subject and surrounding
conditions and determines the
optimal settings for recording (during
Auto). However, you can also select a
recording mode that better suits the
situation for even clearer images.

person or pet, stand out from a
blurred background.
