[. . . ] VZ-STEALTH-LX OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ***PLEASE READ BEFORE USING*** Thanks for purchasing our new deluxe miniature lens control, the Stealth-LX. Before you begin using your controller, there are a few important guidelines to follow: -DO NOT PLUG THE UNIT INTO ANY PANASONIC CAMERA OR DAMAGE MAY RESULT!!! [. . . ] If you are not sure about the location of the LANC jack, consult the camcorder owner's manual. You can attach the controller to your tripod handle, monopod, shoulder support, or stabilizer with the adjustable clamp (DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!). The brass handle located at the center of the controller is for zooming. Since it is a pressuresensitive "zoom throttle, " the farther you push it up the faster it will zoom in (telephoto), and the farther you pull it back the faster it will zoom out (wide). You should practice a bit before shooting so that you acquire a good sense of the throttle characteristics. The small button marked with a red "R" is the record start/stop button. The button marked ON will toggle the camera between standby and full power modes. Hold the button in for 2 seconds and release to put the camera into standby mode. To power the camera up from standby mode, simply press the ON button (most camcorders will go into auto standby after a few minutes in record pause mode). Pressing the "ON" button will bring the camcorder back to full operating mode whether you put it into standby manually or if it happens automatically. You can also control the focus of your lens manually using the Stealth-LX. With most camcorders, you can toggle between Auto and Manual focus with the autofocus button * (marked "A").
