b Notes
• The video light does not turn on when the AC
adaptor AC-L100C (supplied) is used. To use
the video light, use a battery pack (sold
separately).
• If you use the video light with an XLR
microphone attached, the microphone may cast
a shadow in the shooting frame depending on
the zoom position.
• The video light generates strong light. Do not
use the video light directly in front of the eyes at
close range.
• The battery drains quickly while using the video
light.
• When the video light is lit, automatic white
balance adjustment may not work properly
depending on the recording conditions. In this
case, use the one push white balance function
(p. 42).
• It may take several seconds for the video light to
turn off after you turn off the power of the
camcorder with a remote commander (sold
separately) connected to the REMOTE jack.
