InfoLithium battery with AccuPower meter system Unlike NiCad
(Nickel Cadmium) batteries, Sony's rechargeable Lithium-ion

so youre free to charge the battery at any time. Additionally,
Sony's exclusive AccuPower meter displays the battery time
remaining in minutes, in either the viewfinder or on the LCD
screen.
Stamina Battery Power Management System When using the Sony
InfoLithium Battery, the Stamina Battery Power Management System
helps the camcorder prolong battery life for extra long
continuous times from a single charge.
Tele Macro function Images in the Tele Macro Mode help your
subject stand out by properly focusing the subject while leaving
the background unfocussed. The Tele Macro Mode is useful for
shooting close-up s, especially when you need to prevent the
camcorder from casting a shadow on the subject.
Manual focus Manually adjust the focus of the camcorder using
the touch panel. Manual focusing also allows the user to control
the focus in difficult situations where either the environment or
the subject does not allow the camcorder's auto focus to perform
optimally, such as when shooting through a window or in a crowded
environment.

Infrared System uses a slow shutter mode to let you shoot video
with improved color and contrast, even in total darkness (0 lux).
