Using Optional Conversion Lenses
Attaching the optional TL-H58 Tele-converter increases the focal length of
the camcorder by a factor of approximately 1.5. Attaching the optional
WD-H58W Wide-converter decreases the focal length by a factor of
approximately 0.8. When you attach a conversion lens, perform the
procedure below to optimize the autofocus and minimum object distance
for the particular lens.
