Mini Video Light

With the camcorder's mode switch set to [M] you can turn on the mini video light to shoot video or take photos in dark places.

Touch [FUNC.] then touch [Video Light], then touch [On] to turn on the video light.

Repeat the same sequence and select [Off] to turn off the mini video light.
