Video Scopes
The camcorder can display a simplified waveform monitor or
vectorscope. 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.

Press the WFM button.
• The waveform monitor will appear in a window on the lower right of the
screen.
• You can repeatedly press the WFM button to activate the video scopes

monitor, [VS] for the vectorscope or [Edge Mon.] for the edge monitor.
