How to Change lenses on a camcorder

Make sure you have the appropriate lens for your digital camera. Look for markers on the lens that correspond with any mark on the camera body. Different brands have different markers. Some have square dots while some have red dots. Line these marks In one hand, hold your camera body firmly pointing to you. While holding it, push the lens button. Firmly hold the bottom of the lens (where the lens meets the camera body), and twist. Some cameras let you twist clockwise, others counterclockwise. After a slight turning of the lens, either clockwise or counterclockwise, you can feel it click free.

•Remove the lens from your camera; get the new lens and look for a colored dot on the rear edge. On the front, place a lens cap and on the base end put a screw on cap.
