Video Scopes

The camcorder can display a simplified waveform monitor. It can also display an edge monitor* to help you

focus. The video scopes appear only on the LCD screen. They do not appear in the viewfinder or on an external

monitor.

* The edge monitor looks at the focus of the entire picture and displays the results as a waveform. The edge monitor is available

only in mode.
