GETTING ACQUAINTED
• Setting the camera to wide-angle zoom while the Tele
Conversion Lens causes shadows around the periph-
ery of the image. This is because the frame of the at-
tached lens blocks some of the light coming into the
lens. Because of this, you should always use tele-
photo zoom whenever you are using the Tele Conver-
sion Lens.
• The effects of camera movement are magnified while
the Tele Conversion Lens is being used. Whenever
you are using a conversion lens, install the cushion
that comes with it and mount the camera on a tripod
so it is secure.
• Due to certain characteristics of the Wide Conversion
Lens, you may notice some slight distortion in images
recorded with it installed.
• Make sure that (Macro Mode) is selected as the
focus mode whenever you are using the Wide Conver-
sion Lens.
• Note that optical zoom is restricted as shown below in
the Macro Mode .
* QV-2400UX: 1X fixed (QV-2400UX)
* QV-2900UX: 1X to 1.6X (QV-2900UX)
Using a Filter
The lenses of both camera models are threaded.
With the QV-2400UX, you can screw on an optionally avail-
able Conversion Lens Adapter (LU-8A) and then attach a
commercially available lens filter.
With the QV-2900UX, you can screw a commercially avail-
able lens filter directly to the lens, without using the Conver-
sion Lens Adapter.
IMPORTANT!
• When using a lens filter with the QV-2400UX, be sure
you first screw the optionally available Conversion
Lens Adapter onto the lens. A filter attached directly to
the lens of the QV-2400UX will come into contact with
the convex surface of the lens and damage it.
• The designs of some filters can cause shadows
around the periphery of the image.
• Auto focus and flash may not produce desired results
while a filter is on the lens.
• Filters do not produce exactly the same results as
those obtained with a film-based camera.
• Do not use multiple filters in combination.
• Use of the flash while a commercially available lens
hood is installed may not produce desired results.
