accessories such as a video light, a flash, or a
microphone (sold separately). The accessory
can be turned on or off as you open or close
the LCD screen of your camcorder. Refer to
the operating instructions supplied with your
accessory for details.
The Active Interface Shoe has a safety device

for fixing the installed accessory securely. To
connect an accessory, press down and push it to
the end, and then tighten the screw. To remove
an accessory, loosen the screw, and then press
down and pull out the accessory.
When you are recording movies with an

separately) and the built-in flash at the same
