If necessary support the camcorder with your left hand. With practice, you will be able to operate the controls by touch, without taking your eye off the action. Using a Tripod To prevent any unwanted movement, you can mount the camcorder on a tripod, (or any flat surface at a suitable height) and operate it with the wireless controller. • When you are using a tripod, be careful not to leave the viewfinder exposed to bright sunlight as it may melt. (The light is concentrated by the viewfinder lens.) Change the angle of the viewfinder so that the sun does not shine into it. • Make sure that the fastening screw of the tripod is no longer than 1/4 inch (5.5 mm), as it will damage the camcorder. Recording Sound Recording For greater creative control over audio recording, you can connect an external microphone to the camcorder via the MIC terminal. When using the MIC terminal, use a microphone with a built-in power supply (condenser microphone). It is possible to connect almost any stereo microphone with a plug diameter of 1/8 inch (3.5 mm), however, their audio levels will be different from that of the built-in microphone. 40 Composition The most important element in the scene does not necessarily have to be centered. For a more interesting picture, try to position your subject slightly to one side. Leave some space on the side of the frame that the subject is facing or moving towards. Do not cut off the top of the subject’s head, and do not cut people off at the neck, hips or knees (move a little bit above or below). E Watch out for distracting objects in the background. Picture Angle Instead of zooming while recording, try to choose your picture angle before you begin. A good way to tell a story with video is to begin Long shot with a long shot that establishes the situation, and then move in with medium shots and close-ups to show the details. Remember to change your viewpoint for each shot. Medium shot Remember that any camcorder movement or change in picture angle should have a definite purpose. Avoid unnecessary or half-hearted movements. Close-up Recording Camcorder Moves Use pans to record a landscape or follow a moving subject. Decide the area you wish to cover and stand facing the end of your panning angle. Without moving your feet, turn your waist to the starting position. Start recording, and after a Pan few seconds begin to turn slowly from the waist. Hold the final image for a few seconds before you stop recording. Tilt the camcorder up to exaggerate the height of the subject. Tilt down from the top of a building, for example, as an introduction to subjects at the bottom.
