it to an HDTV via an HDMI cable, and easily playback the recorded high-definition videos on the wide  
screen HDTV.  
Moreover, the camcorder has an advanced uploading feature. With the exclusive built-in YouTube Direct  
application, you can upload the videos captured by the camcorder to YouTube more effortlessly .  
ISO sensitivity and color balance can either be adjusted automatically or changed manually. A 10x digital  
zoom helps you to control over the movies and pictures you take.

Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting  
1. If the LCD preview is not clear while shooting, how can the focus be adjusted?  
Try to switch between Macro and Auto Mode.  
2. The flash is not working.  
The battery power is low.  
The camcorder is in DC power mode.  
3. The files on the memory card do not display smoothly when the LCD shows the “!” marking.  
The “!” means the SD card is low speed or is having wrong content inside. The way to solve this  
condition is to format SD card by the camcorder instead of a PC (Please refer to the detailed Format  
instruction in Section 5).  
4. Why is camcorder flash not active when taking pictures?  
In the flash auto mode, the camcorder flash fires ONLY when necessary (e.g. in the dark).  
5. Why do some of my indoor pictures look blurry and dark?  
The camcorder extends picture exposure time under low light/ indoor condition. Keep the camcorder  
(and  
the target subject) steady for several seconds when taking pictures. The shutter will sound when  
pictures are being taken.  
6. How do I charge battery?  
You must use the supplied AC charger or the USB cable.  
The camcorder must be turned OFF; blinking light confirms charging, and the light becomes constant  
when the charging has been completed. Then, the light will turn itself off automatically after 5 minutes  
(In AC charging Mode).
